Formerly known as Riga Theatre no.2, this building housed the first declaration of Latvia’s national independence on November 18 1918. Today the State theatre has 3 performance halls, ranging from the Grand hall to the New, and the Chamber hall in the basement, which remains inaccessible by wheelchair. Entry by ramp at the main door gives access to the building itself. Further help by staff might be necessary to reach seats at the boxes. Although the theatre cafeteria is wheelchair-inaccessible, its products can also be purchased at the front lobby. Both a display for subtitles and a mobile app are currently in development.
