  • Indre-et-Loire
  • Centre-Val de Loire
The doors of the Big(Great) Theatre of crossed(exceeded) Towers, you penetrate into a wide peristyle adorned with columns supporting a flat vault with boxes. From there, you reach the big(great) staircase. In this Italian-style theatre, the spirit of party(holiday), of phantasm, "to show" is underlined by three symbolic colours. You will point out in the centre, a dated mosaic realised by the company Novello (native to Ravenna, Italy) representing the coat of arms of the city of Tours(Ballots,Towers); will of the municipality to show from the outset to the public the membership of the building(ship). The Big(Great) Theatre of Tours(Ballots,Towers), only opera of the Region Centre - Val de Loire of the Loire, is a place of creation, of production and of distribution(broadcasting) of shows but it is also provided, contrary in his/her/its early stages, of workshops(studios) for the preparation(clothing business) of suits(costumes), for the manufacturing of decorations(sets) and of accessories.
