Файл:Monte Carlo, from Fort Antoine, Monaco (Riviera)-LCCN2002715106.jpg
A late 19th-century view of Fort Antoine and Monte-Carlo.

The Fort Antoine Theatre is a small amphitheatre on the Avenue de la Quarantaine in the Monaco-Ville ward of Monaco. The fort hosts open air plays in the summer months.[1]

The theatre was originally constructed as a fortress in the early 18th-century before its destruction in 1944.[1] Prince Rainier III had the fortress rebuilt as a theatre in 1953.[1] The parapet of the fort is provided by pittosporum hedges.[1] The militaristic nature of its architecture has been retained with a bartizan and a pyramid of cannonballs at the centre of the theatre.[1]
