명동예술극장 (myeong·dong·ye·sul·geuk·jang) is the theatre at 명동길 35, the stone-fronted building between the main street and the cathedral. Seoul Danurim says it ran as 명동국립극장, the National Theatre, from 1934 to 1973, and reopened as a drama house after a three-year restoration that kept the old exterior and rebuilt the inside, with a 588-seat mid-sized auditorium. 서울사랑 (June 2023) dates the reopening to June 2009 and says it is now the dedicated stage of the 국립극단, the National Theater Company.
The company's own page gives the way in: exit 6 at 을지로입구역 (line 2), 324 metres, or exit 6 at 명동역 (line 4), 335 metres. Bookings go through 1644-2003 on weekdays from 13:00 to 18:00.
Exit 6 from either station and walk towards the cathedral. Book on the National Theater Company's site before you come; the phone line is weekdays only.
