Teatro Municipal Pérez Alonso

La Baneza, a small town in Leon province, received Carmen at the Teatro Municipal Perez Alonso on 24 November 2013, in the closing week of the Operisima tour of Spain. The theatre opened on 28 April 1930 as a private venture, built to an Italian plan by the architect Javier Sanz with a stage, an orchestra pit and 480 seats spread over stalls, mezzanine, boxes and gallery. The town council bought the building in 1997. It reopened on 18 March 2011 after a rebuilding and enlargement directed by the architect Andres Lozano Ferreras, and joined the theatre network of Castilla y Leon in 2012. The Teatro Municipal de La Bañeza began as the privately financed Teatro Pérez Alonso, designed by Javier Sanz. La Bañeza's council bought the theatre in 1997 and commissioned its restoration and enlargement under Andrés Lozano Ferreras. It reopened on 18 March 2011 and joined the theatre network of Castile and León the following year.
