This atmospheric Moorish theatre remained in operation until the 1970s. The theatre was sold, stripped and partially gutted in the 1990s before demolition was stopped by the city. At the time I visited in the summer of 2007, it's fate was still uncertain. When I visited in 2020, it was clearly in very bad shape.
