room theatre
Explanation:
Az interneten kutakodva számos releváns találatra leltem a ROOM-THEATRE kifejezés alatt. Ebből kettőt alább mellékelek. Az egyik a Kolibri Színház, a másik pedig a Blue Room Theatre szobaszínház honlapja.

Még \"living-room theare\" néven is utalnak rá, azonban a házimozizásra is használják ezt a kifejezést, így a \"room-theatre\" mellett maradtam.

magyarázat


Explanation:
szerintem nincs rá külön szó. A legismertebb szobaszínház a Halász Péter egykori társulata (Kassák Színház, majd Amerikában Squat Theater).
Róluk a következőket találtam:
1972 Kassak Theater is prohibited for political reasons. The company continues performing underground in private apartments.
www.szinhaz.hu/halasz/curriculum.html

...36 different plays, sketches, and improvisations are performed in apartments, staircases, streets, beaches and so on.

szobaszínház
Living Room Theatre / Theater


Explanation:
The set, such as it is, consists of a few tables and chairs with two grips dressed as hotel maids efficiently creating a bed for the lovers and a few bits of business such as two paper party hats used to transform Matthew into a clown like cuckold. As with many productions in this living room theater, the stagecraft is largely a case of making something out of practically nothing.

The new theater will comfortably seat 75 versus 135 when it was the Pocket Theater. According to Bologna, the name of the theater is still in the works, but he did say the name under consideration is Lyric Arts Living Room Theater. http://www.abcnewspapers.com/2003/march/6arts.html
It doesn’t seem like anyone expects much from "Beyond Borders." It ranked No. 11 in its opening weekend box office, grossing only $2 million - far behind "Scary Movie 3" and "Texas Chainsaw Massacre." Locally it’s only playing in what I lovingly refer to as "the living room theater" in the Portsmouth Hoyts where the screen is roughly the size of the Exit sign. http://www.seacoastonline.com/calendar/2003/10302003/movie/5...

disagree  Leslie Gabor (X): home theater in North America is the electronic that is assembled and used for daily entertainment, like TV, stereo, DVD, VCR, etc. all hooked up together and projected on a large screen. By the way, it should be "should", not "shoudl".
