Foram inicialmente de madeira por a lei republicana impedir construções permanentes. Na época imperial passaram a ser edifícios de pedra baseados no modelo arquitectónico grego do período helenístico. Existiram por todo o Império para divulgação de peças teatrais clássicas tanto gregas como latinas. Compunham-se de: scenae frons (local do cenário), porticus post scenae (pórtico atrás do cenário), proscenium (destinado à representação), aditus (entrada da orchestra), orchestra (lugares destinados às autoridades), vomitoria (entrada da cavea), cavea (local dos espectadores). Por vezes cobriam-nos com panos para resguardar os assistentes das intempéries.
Initially they were made of wood as the republican law forbade permanent constructions. In the imperial epoch they became stone buildings based on the architectural Greek model of the Hellenistic period. They existed throughout the empire for the dissemination of theatrical classical plays, Greek as well as Latin. They consisted of: scenae frons (place for the stage setting), porticus post scenae (portico behind the stage setting), proscenium (for the performance), aditus (orchestra entry), orchestra (seats for the authorities), vomitoria (cavea entry) cavea (place for spectators). Sometimes they were covered with cloths to protect the audience from the intemperate weather.
