Around ten minutes' walk away from the Cathedral, closer to the shopping centres and Rodoviaria on the northern side of the Eixo Monumental, is the Teatro Nacional . Built in the form of an Aztec temple, it's a marvellous, largely glass-covered pyramid set at an angle to let light into the lobby, where there are often good art exhibitions with futuristic and environmental themes. Inside are three halls: the Martins Pena, the Villa-Lobos (the largest, seating 1200) and the much smaller Alberto Nepomuceno. Unfortunately, most theatre productions are in Portuguese.
