It is Friday evening and I am at Teatro Degollado with good friends in Guadalajara. A neoclassical building with performances from international operas to folklore dances.

 The theater was inaugurated on September 13, 1866 with the opera Lucia di Lammermoor performed by Angela Peralta

 The interior consists of red and gold.  Paintings has been added to improve the interior design.
