Dantala Theater was a famous traveling theater that operated in the 9th and 10th centuries TR. The theater was known for its historical plays and innovative mobile sets, with several theater troupes touring the Continent at the same time.

It was founded by Mardala Tanio, a Ybuwyn performer and entrepreneur.

Dantala Theater's repertoire was notable for popularizing relatively obscure historical names and events. It is cited as having revitalized the popularity of Line Aylis in the east, as well as introduced her to the west. It also produced the most famous rendition of the Seeker Kayda story, as well as a number of plays based on early history of Darda.
