Located in Largo di Torre Argentina in Rome, the Teatro Argentina is one of the city's oldest theatres, constructed in 1731 and inaugurated on 31 January 1732 with Domenico Sarro's opera *Berenice*. Designed by Gerolamo Theodoli, this opera house was built over part of the curia section of the Theatre of Pompey—the very space where Julius Caesar was assassinated. The theatre stands as both an architectural landmark and a palimpsest of Roman history, layering centuries of performance and political drama within its structure.
