The majestic Teatro Tomás Terry is considered the principal theater of the beautiful Cienfuegos, Cuba. It is an eclectic and elegant theater located in the historical center of the city, in the emblematic Parque José Martí.
Founded in 1890, this theater was built in honor of Tomás Terry Adans, one of the richest men in Cuba and who made a huge fortune in the sugar business in the 19th century. It was his sons who decided to invest in its construction and make their dream come true: "to have their own luxury theater".
The majesty of the Teatro Tomás Terry is based on Italian style, both inside and out, characterized mainly by its horseshoe-shaped hall. Its interior consists of an auditorium decorated with marble and hand-carved parquet, in addition to 950 seats available.
It was opened with the excellent performance of Aida, by Giuseppe Verdi. Since then, numerous personalities from various nationalities have had the honour of performing in it, such as Enrico Caruso, Anna Pavlova and Antonio Gades.
