no. you will need an amp though, a bass amp works fine, keyboard amp would be better, i wouldn't risk using a guitar amp with one though. you could run one through a synth if you wanted to though, or you could run it through effect pedals just as easily.
unlike FiC's comment though, you do need to have a REALLY good ear to play the theremin properly, otherwise you just end up sounding like crappy feedback trying to sound like a bad sci-fi soundtrack. i guess it ultimately depends on whether you want to use it as a novelty (like jimmy page) or as a lead voice (like the guys in Air).
