Visiting Cádiz

Cádiz’s Cultural Jewel: The Teatro Falla in the Plaza Fragela

The Teatro Falla, “the house of the blushing bricks,” owes its unique charm to the unusual reddish hue of its façade. Nestled in the El Mentidero neighborhood in the Plaza Fragela, the Teatro Falla is a splendid specimen of Neo-Mudejar architecture.

Not only does it take center stage during the city’s lively carnival in February, but it also hosts a diverse array of performances, encompassing theater, music, dance, and opera throughout the year.

The Plaza de Fragela and teatro Falla is part of the Visit Cádiz audio guided route. Check it out here: h ttps://visitingcadiz.com/immerse-yourself-in-cadizs-rich-history-a-guided-audio-tour/

Opulent and vibrant

This opulent and vibrant venue boasts a horseshoe-shaped interior that can comfortably accommodate around 1,200 spectators. If you have a penchant for artistry, don’t miss the exquisite frescoes adorning the ceiling, which can be best appreciated from the top floor. Be sure to peruse the program to discover the upcoming events; while there’s a wide array of entertainment options, tickets for the carnival performances are the most coveted.

From the ashes rose Cádiz’s Cultural Jewel: The Teatro Falla

The construction of the current theater commenced in 1884, based on the architectural designs of Adolfo Morales de los Ríos. The project was born from the ashes of the previous Gran Teatro de Cádiz, a wooden structure designed by García del Álamo and erected in 1871, only to be tragically consumed by fire in 1881 . However, due to financial constraints, the construction of the Gran Teatro Falla proceeded intermittently, and it wasn’t until 1905 that it was finally completed. Juan Cabrera de la Torre, the municipal architect, introduced substantial modifications to Morales’s original blueprints. The theater received its name change in 1926, honoring the renowned composer and native son, Manuel de Falla.

The Neo-Mudéjar style of the theater is characterized by its striking red brick construction, featuring three grand horseshoe arch entryways on the principal façade, adorned with alternating red and white voussoirs. Upon entering these doors, you step into a spacious vestibule, which underwent a redesign in the 1920s. Staircases lead to the horseshoe-shaped galleries above, offering a truly immersive experience for the audience. The stage measures 18 meters in width and 25.5 meters in depth, providing an expansive canvas for artistic expression. The masterpiece adorning the ceiling depicts an allegory of Paradise and is the creation of Felipe Abarzuza y Rodríguez de Arias.

The Teatro Falla and Cádiz Carnival

Each February, the Gran Teatro Falla takes center stage as the backdrop for the artistic competitions of the Carnival of Cádiz. During a period of restoration and repairs from 1987 to 1991, these competitions found a temporary home at the now-defunct Teatro Andalucía. Throughout the remainder of the year, the theater serves as a versatile platform, hosting a wide array of events, spanning from plays to concerts.

Dr. Cayetano del Toro

In the Plaza Fragela we also find a beautiful statue dedicated to Dr. Cayetano del Toro, a notable figure in Cádiz’s history.

He was a physician and a liberal politician who played a significant role in the city’s political and social landscape during the 19th century. Dr. Cayetano del Toro was known for his involvement in the liberal movements of the time and for his efforts to promote progressive ideas and reforms in Cádiz and Spain as a whole.

Visit El Gran Teatro Falla

El Gran Teatro Falla is a 19th-century structure in the heart of the Old Town of Cádiz. Located on the site of its previous incarnation, the theater is built in the Neo-Mudéjar style with red bricks and grand arches. Select a performance from dances, plays, operas and other spectacles in this iconic theater.

Capture photos of this spectacular building, with its red and white pattern, rose windows and other intricate facets. Palm trees flank the sides of this theater, which has an Arabic Spanish style.

Enter through one of the large portals to find yourself in the spacious vestibule, which has a 1920s design. The hall has stairways leading to the main auditorium, which has a stage that is 59 feet (18 meters) wide and 84 feet (26 meters) deep.

Watch a dance or musical performance from one of the red chairs lined up across the floor and surrounding golden balconies of the theater. The auditorium has stall boxes, mezzanine boxes and an upper stand. Examine the Moorish motifs decorating the walls of the theater. Gaze up at the modern chandelier that hangs over the seats.

Attend the artistic competitions and recitals that take place during the annual Carnival of Cádiz at the end of February or beginning of March. Inspect the works of art on display during exhibitions.

Note that the theater takes its name from local composer Manuel de Falla, who blended Andalusian folk music and flamenco. He is generally considered among Spain’s most important 20th-century musicians. The complex was built on the spot of a former wooden theater that burned down.

El Gran Teatro Falla is in the northwestern part of the Old Town district. It is a short walk from the sea and the Parque Genovés. Visit nearby attractions, such as the Plaza de San Antonio, the Santo Ángel Custodio Church and the Museo de las Cortes.

El Gran Teatro Falla

En Andalucía , cuna de grandes artistas, el arte es uno de los aspectos más ilustres. Es por esto que, desde principios del siglo XVII, en la ciudad de Cádiz hay evidencia de locales permanentes destinados a la representación de obras teatrales.

Historia del Gran Teatro Falla

Hablar del Gran Teatro Falla es hacerlo de la escena cultural y artística de Cádiz. Arquitectónicamente, se trata de un edificio de estilo neomudéjar , tanto en su exterior como en el interior. A simple vista, el colorido de su fachada de ladrillos rojos, los grandes ventanales con arcos de herradura y los numerosos detalles de estilo árabe español llaman poderosamente la atención. Sus obras se iniciaron en 1885, sobre las cenizas del antiguo Gran Teatro, totalmente destruido en un incendio que tuvo lugar en 1881 y concluyeron en 1905. Los responsables del proyecto fueron los arquitectos Adolfo Morales de los Ríos y Adolfo del Castillo Escribano.

El teatro se inauguró el 12 de enero de 1910 con la interpretación de una sinfonía de Barbieri . Hasta el año 1926, el teatro se conocía como Gran Teatro de Cádiz, pero fue rebautizado como Gran Teatro Falla en honor al famoso músico gaditano, Manuel de Falla , ciudadano de honor de la ciudad.

Horarios de visita

No puedes visitar la ciudad sin conocer con detalle uno de sus símbolos más emblemáticos.  La entrada al público del edificio está permitida siempre que se lleve a cabo alguna función mediante la adquisición de las entradas correspondientes o bien por medio de una visita guiada. El horario de venta de entradas en la taquilla es de martes a viernes de 11:00h a 14:00h y de 18:00 a 21:00h . Sin embargo, lo más recomendable para conocer en profundidad el Gran Teatro Falla es reservar con antelación una visita guiada para garantizar su plaza. La duración de la visita es de aproximadamente dos horas e incluye un breve recorrido por la historia del teatro, así como también una visita a los camerinos, el patio de butacas y su parte más alta, conocida como «el paraíso», nombre que proviene del gran lienzo del artista Felipe Abarzuza y Rodríguez de Arias, que cubre todo el techo de la sala y que representa una alegoría del Paraíso. Además, podrás cantar y bailar sobre las tablas de su inmenso escenario de madera e incluso sentirte juez por un momento desde el palco que ocupa el jurado en carnaval. 

Por un lado, el precio de la entrada dependerá de cuál sea el espectáculo en cuestión . Con respecto al precio de la visita guiada, suele ser de 15€ por persona . El precio incluye una degustación de vino y tapa en una de nuestras famosas tabernas gaditanas. La entrada para los menores de 12 años es gratuita y, en el caso de tratarse de un grupo de personas, se contará con un precio especial que podrá consultar en el momento de la reserva. 

El lugar de inicio de la visita es la Plaza de San Juan de Dios, frente a la estatua de Moret.

Programación

En el Gran Teatro Falla se representan durante todo el año una gran variedad de obras relacionadas con las artes escénicas, entre las que se incluyen el teatro, el cine, la música y la danza. 

Sin embargo, su punto culminante tiene lugar en el mes de febrero, cuando el teatro acoge el Concurso Oficial de Agrupaciones del Carnaval de Cádiz , uno de los actos más populares y arraigados de la ciudad, en el que las distintas agrupaciones carnavalescas muestran todo su arte y genialidad en diversas modalidades.

Se trata de una fiesta en la que diversos grupos de ciudadanos disfrazados expresan con sátira acontecimientos actuales. Durante una semana, decenas de agrupaciones despliegan sus ingeniosos repertorios por las calles de Cádiz para deleite de ciudadanos y visitantes.

El Gran Teatro Falla es también una de las sedes de los diversos festivales que se celebran en la ciudad. Por un lado, cabe destacar el Festival Iberoamericano de Teatro de Cádiz , un festival de teatro que desde 1985 se celebra anualmente en el mes de octubre. Por otro lado, Alcances , Festival de Cine Documental de Cádiz, celebrado desde finales de los años 60 hasta la actualidad. Hoy en día, Alcances ocupa varias jornadas del mes de septiembre y se caracteriza por su apoyo al cortometraje y al cine documental y mantiene actividades paralelas tales como presentaciones de libros sobre cine, exposiciones, homenajes a autores destacados, etc.

Gran Teatro Falla

Historic building and theatre in cádiz.

The Gran Teatro Falla is a 19th-century  theater in Cádiz. It was built between 1884 and 1905 on the site of the previous Gran Teatro which had burned down in 1881. The exterior of the building is of red bricks in the Mudéjar style or Moorish-Spanish style, and the interior notable for its richness and color. The theater was known as the “Gran Teatro” until 1926 when it was renamed for composer Manuel de Falla who was born in Cadiz.

Its large horseshoe-shaped entrance doors have the classic Moorish-style of alternating red and white archway stones which are called voussoirs. These lead you to a large vestibule with stairs which ascend to the horseshoe galleries above.

There is usually an exciting schedule of plays and concerts here and in February the Gran Teatro Falla is the site of the artistic competitions of the Carnival of Cádiz. Where groups of people dress up in outrageous matching outfits and sing songs about anything from politics to popular culture.

The Gran Teatro Falla is a theatre in Cadiz. Boasting of marvellous and intricate architecture, Adolfo Morales de los Rios was the architect behind this red-bricked neo-Mudejar majesty. The theatre was constructed between the years of 1884 to 1905. Following renovations in the 1920s, the theatre was renamed the Gran Teatro Falla, in honour of composer Manuel de Falla. If you have time, catch a show or two at the theatre. If not, just admiring the building and capturing its designs and detailing in your camera and mind in enough.
