The Theatre Garibaldi
-
Strongly desired by Calogero Gubernale, major of Avola, the Theatre is next to the Town Hall and was planned by Salvatore Rizza on an area of 493 square meters, at first designed for St. Domenico's church factory. In was inaugurated on April, 20th 1876 and dedicated to Garibaldi in 1882, was later closed in the 40s of the last century and, later a long recovery restoration and consolidation, the Theatre was reopened to the public on April, 20th 2011. The elegant Renaissance frontage, made of Iblean white stones, dominates the homonymous square and some round arches are surmounted by balusters reminding of Palladio times. The interior is a real harmony's miracle. Some operators coming from St. Carlo of Naples worked on the scenic devices and scenography. The stalls, horseshoe shaped and surmounted by paterned golden tribunes over three floors, are exactly beyond the hallway. The Plafond features paintings representing the Dancing Muses and the Hallway's portraits by Gregorio Scalia. In the upstair foyer there is the permanent exhibition of the "Theatre's Faces: story and documents" that brings out news concering its edification and people involved.
