Overview:
Teatro Universidad de Concepción (Corcudec) is a non-profit institution founded in 2004 and affiliated with the University of Concepción. Its mission is to contribute to the cultural life of the Biobío Region and Chile by promoting inclusive access to the arts and culture and encouraging active community participation. Corcudec stands out for its comprehensive approach to the arts, with a particular emphasis on its ensembles—such as the Symphony Orchestra and the University of Concepción Choir—and on the University of Concepción Theater as a cultural venue, all of which are key pillars of its programming.
Through a diverse offering of concerts, theater, film, and educational activities, the institution has become a benchmark for artistic and cultural excellence. With a vision of cultural leadership, Corcudec aspires to project itself both nationally and internationally. Among its most recent achievements are the historic 2022 European tour of the UdeC Symphony Orchestra, with performances in Italy and Austria, and its 2023 participation at the Golden Hall of Teatro Colón in Buenos Aires, alongside the cast of the Chilean opera Ópera Patagonia by Sebastián Errázuriz. The Corporation also prioritizes the creation of strategic partnerships and the diversification of its cultural offerings, reaffirming its commitment to innovation, excellence, and the democratization of the arts.
