Seville enchants

The Riberas del Guadaíra Theatre-Auditorium is a modern, versatile venue suitable for any type of event, from conventional theatre to operas, musicals, dance, symphonic concerts "and anything else".

The San Francisco monastery was founded by Diego de Torres, M. A., Professor of Salamanca University, and was paid for by the people through donations. For some time, it was named San Diego in honour of its founder.

The brothers Serafín (1871-1938) and Joaquín (1873-1944) Álvarez Quintero were born in Utrera, where they lived their childhood years.

The Teatro Oriente is a newly built theatre in the town of Morón that was inaugurated in February 2007 and replaced the old Cine Oriente, which was closed in 1998. It is an Italian-style theatre, with a theatre tower, stalls and a box, located on the same site as the old one in Calle Nueva.

The origins of the Theatre in Ecija go back to 1617, when the City Council decided to build a Comedy House. The councillors appointed for the task bought some houses in "Calle de los Arquillos" for the purpose, the works being completed in 1621, although it was necessary to carry out a series of enlargement works two years later.

The building was inaugurated in 1912. It is currently undergoing rehabilitation to continue hosting the cultural and scenic activities of the municipality.

The Teatro Cerezo, also known as the Teatro del Arte, is the most representative 1930s building in the town. 

Inside, the theatre is surprisingly large, especially the upper floor, whose cantilever overhangs the stalls. The ceilings preserve the original decoration with large circular light fixtures.
