Constructed in 1917, the design of the theatre is influenced by Creole Classicism. The richly decorated interior, the finely painted ceiling, elaborate figures on the sills of the boxes, famous paintings, eloquent lighting, and the perfect acoustics of the place, together harmoniously provoke an intimate idyll.
The Enrique Buenaventura Local Theater is the cultural centre of Cali built using early 19th century architecture influenced by Creole classicism. The Italian opera house was used as an example with neoclassical adaptations. Among other things, the building still uses the original curtain and seats.
