outdoor theatre

Performance under stars

Outdoor theatre is a performance venue without a roof, where audiences watch plays, concerts, or films in open air.

The term covers ancient amphitheatres, modern concert shells, and temporary stages in parks.

In American English, outdoor theater may also mean a drive-in cinema.

We saw Shakespeare at the outdoor theatre in the park.
