The Cinema Teatro, inaugurated in 1934, was hailed as a place “for cinematographic shows, as well as theatre and variety programmes”. The interior and exterior decoration was carried out by Carlo Basilico. The ceiling, entrance hall and foyer were much admired, but the murals of futuristic vision on the tower of the building were not very enthusiastically received and some indignation was expressed. The Cinema Teatro presents films, operas, operettas and classical music concerts. It is also used for dances, end-of the year balls, fashion shows, sporting events and lectures. It is regarded as the throbbing heart of the Town.
