It was <strong>inaugurated in 1917<\/strong> with the name of <strong>Teatro Ode\u00f3n<\/strong> and situated in a beautiful building which is still preserved . We must highlight <strong>its splendid fa\u00e7ade with its classical and modern style decorative elements<\/strong> and its characteristic turret. The building plans were done by <strong>the architect Eduardo Sanchez Eznarriaga<\/strong> who also had it built arousing the curiosity of the Madrile\u00f1os as few buildings in the city&nbsp; were comparable to its beauty and elegance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"650\" height=\"426\" src=\"https:\/\/www.estateone.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/03-calderon-1.jpg\" alt=\"Teatro Calder\u00f3n: entertainment in the centre of Madrid\" class=\"wp-image-33032\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.estateone.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/03-calderon-1.jpg 650w, https:\/\/www.estateone.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/03-calderon-1-300x197.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><figcaption> Theatre seats in the interior.

This new theatre had <strong>a capacity to seat an audience of more than a thousand people<\/strong>. A year later, it was bought by <strong>Centro de Hijos de Madrid<\/strong> and it was renamed <strong>Teatro del Centro<\/strong>. The most important plays of the time were performed there and it also hosted all kinds of <strong>tributes, concerts and social events<\/strong>. No other theatre hall in Madrid could be compared, regarding its facilities, to Teatro del Centro: it had <strong>central heating<\/strong> in the whole building, <strong>luxurious furniture, bathrooms, cloakrooms, large halls <\/strong>and even<strong> a hairdresser\u00b4s<\/strong> for the Madrile\u00f1os who went to the theatre. In 1927, the theatre passed into the hands of the <strong>Duke of Infantado<\/strong> and after carrying out important alterations its name was changed to <strong>Teatro Calder\u00f3n<\/strong> as it is currently known.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"650\" height=\"487\" src=\"https:\/\/www.estateone.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/04-calderon-1.jpg\" alt=\"Teatro Calder\u00f3n: entertainment in the centre of Madrid\" class=\"wp-image-33033\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.estateone.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/04-calderon-1.jpg 650w, https:\/\/www.estateone.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/04-calderon-1-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><figcaption>The inside of the theatre seen from above <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2>LYRICAL AND MUSICAL WORKS<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Given its dimensions, <strong>Teatro Calder\u00f3<\/strong>n has been used, on many occasions, for<strong> lyrical performances<\/strong>.
