Getting all of the information for this research

So most of the informations I got for this project they were about architecture, what type of people were leading the theatre throuhout the years and how many impediments the theatre had to overcome in order to be a successful theater, at that specific time that was the only one in the area so people had to be really careful how would they manage their money and how to invest really smart into that theater, not only this but the architecture of the theatre was different compared to a lot of the theaters that were in function at that time, the Spanish chandeliers with a blue and gold color p

When the 1950s rolled around, it was time for a change in scenery. The Granada had an art deco makeover.
