Theater of Balbus


















Regarding the theaters of Rome, only the remains of the one of Marcellus are of significant importance to attract visitors: when 'theaters' are the aim. But also the theater of Balbus and the theater of Pompey left their traces. Subterranean or in the museum. 

The above model is on display in the Museo della Civitata Romana. It was the smallest theater, and I think it is the one in the upper right corner of the picture. The one with the 'appendix' was the theater of Pompeius (Pompey). The appendix, the temple of Venus Victrix. More information (wiki) you can find here! Pictures I have taken at Museo Crypta Balbi?
