This is, or was, a beautiful and modern theater in downtown Lisbon.
It was the home of the "Theatre Company of Chiado" that had on the scene the play with the largest temporal duration of the country and one that had been seen by most Portuguese, "The Complete Works of William Shakespeare in 97 minutes," on the scene for more 14 years and seen by over 300,000 spectators.
Unfortunately a dispute with City Hall ended with the eviction of CBT and at this time the theater is empty, waiting for better days.
I saw the said play and really liked it!
