Today, I am either at the theater or on my way there.
◦ A Miniature City of Art
The Colón Theatre, located on Avenida 9 de Julio, is the third largest opera house in the world. The basement of the building contains a variety of design workshops. These departments specialize in creating costumes and shoes for theater and dance productions. Along with these, the complex includes a music school, dance school, as well as a library, archives, a vocal arts museum, and a museum of early musical instruments. It is truly a small city dedicated to the arts!
◦ A Precious Moment Behind the Scenes
Guided by a tour guide, we entered the opera house and were fortunate enough to observe the technical staff setting up the stage. It was a truly unforgettable experience!
