This theatre has definitely seen better days but it is worth checking what shows are on as you might get the chance of seeing some wonderful local music performers.
Fui no teatro assistir a um show beneficente da Banda Eva, show perfeito num lugar muito bom. Sempre que posso vou assistir um peça
I saw 1 MPB performance and really enjoyed it, the acoustics in the theater were great and the seats are stacked to allow you a view of the stage wherever you are. I was practically at the second last row at the back, but still had great sound and sight of the stage.
O teatro mais expressivo de Salvador, bem estruturado e climatizado. Palco de grandes shows e berço pra cultura, lugar de valor inestimável.
Salvador tem um lindo teatro castro alves, me kembrou muito ao de fortaleza José de Alencar...ccheio de plantas deixando a entrada mais harmoniosa e excelente localização vake a pena conhecer
É um teatro moderno (não é antigão, não é nada barroco) e por isso só justifica visitá-lo para ver alguma apresentação. Não vale a visita para conhecer as dependências. Eu fui assistir à peça chamada "1,99". As cadeiras são confortáveis e marcadas. Vale a pena comprar uma mais próxima ao palco. Eu tive um pouco de dificuldade para escutar e ver o movimento do palco porque estava nas cadeiras do fundo.
The second level you need binoculars. Acoustics need revision and sound quality is below par. The only stage in town to accomadate an orchestra or ballet. So be it!
Vá preparada que o ar funciona muito bem e se ficar no fundo é frio. mas, tem excelente visão e audição também de tudo que acontece no palco.

We were privileged to listen and watch the symphony practice then had a tour of the facility. It was a very modern auditorium and they were rebuilding the outdoor amphitheater as well as other areas. It was interesting to see this facility this way.
