History

Taastrup Theatre was founded by a group of local residents in 1970. It received its current name and engaged an artistic director in 1987. The repertoire was also changed.[1]

Building

The theatre is based in a community centre from the 1970s which was expanded several times during the 1990s.

COBE was expanded the theatre with a new foyer. It consists of a curtain that slope away from the existing building. It consists of translucent and clear acrylic triangles which are illuminated by red lights from within when the theatre is sold out.[2]
