"It is the main example of bourgeois Avilés architecture. Its works began in 1900 and it was inaugurated in 1920. It was built by the architect Manuel del Busto following the scheme of Italian theaters, with a neo-baroque and modernist style, with a longitudinal arrangement parallel to the façade.

In the theater all kinds of works were represented: comedy, dramas, lyrical, among other activities, but it went from more to less until it was finally closed in 1972.

After several years of abandonment it was acquired by the city council and in 1987 the works began of rehabilitation that were finished in 1992.

Declared an Asset of Cultural Interest (BIC) since 1982, it is currently one of the main theaters in Spain. The most important works have passed through its stage and in it many companies perform the premieres of their works on their national tour."
