The Teatro Ambra Jovinelli (literally "Ambra Jovinelli Theater"), formerly known just as Teatro Jovinelli, is a theatre located in Rome, Italy.

It was founded by the theater organizer Giuseppe Jovinelli, who intended to build a theater devoted to variety and comic representations which had a luxurious face and which appeared stylistically rich and noble. [1]

Built in the ancient Esquilino quarter, construction work began in 1906 and the inauguration took place in 1909. [1]
