Teatro Morlacchi, formerly Teatro del Verzaro, is the largest theater of Perugia. It is named after the musician Francesco Morlacchi.

History

In 1777 the local middle class decided to build a new theater in response to the nobles who had built the Teatro del Pavone; ninety families then formed the "Society for the construction of a new theater", which bought an old convent and commissioned the project to architect Alessio Lorenzini.
