VOICED : Tanger busca el renacer del teatro Cervan

The Gran Teatro Cervantes in Tanger, Morocco, is a century-old cultural monument on the brink of ruin. Once a hub for opera and theater, it hosted renowned artists like Enrico Caruso. Built by Enrico Marcader for his theater-loving wife, it opened in 1913 and became a symbol of cosmopolitan Tanger. The theater is owned by Spain, which controls its renovation, estimated to cost 4-5 million euros. A recent urban development program in Tanger may offer a solution, aiming to revive the theater as part of cultural growth.
