In 1972, the theater closed its doors for lack of security and poor maintenance. In 1975, after a dense estimate, it is concluded that the site would undergo a reconstruction.
Architecture with hints of Eva Sopher, theater resumed its activities on June 28, 1984. Almost 23 years later was the first reform, fixing problems such as leaks in certain parts of your home, and their openings, and other local administrative access.
