Posted in Europe, France

I had this wonderful experience tuck into another post and it should have a post of its own, me think, Let me tell you a bit on the wonderful cinema Adriano of Rome !! The area is just sublime , and one of our favorites. Hope you enjoy it as I.

The Cinema Adriano , also known as Politeama Adriano is a cinema and an old theater located on Piazza Cavour.   The  façade has a central arch crowned by a pediment and is punctuated by two orders of arches on pillars and columns. Inaugurated in 1898, with a representation of the opera of Amilcare Ponchielli La Gioconda led by Edoardo Mascheroni. From 1936 to 1946 the theater hosted the concerts of the National Academy of Sainta Cecilia, and was restructured into performances and concert halls.Throughout the first half of the 1900’s, was the largest capacity theatre in Rome with its 5000 seats, and on its scenes were represented operas, dances, comedies, prose dramas, operettas, and even circus shows. On horseback between the two World Wars, the Orchestra of the Accademia di Santa Cecilia, held here concerts. In 1965, the theater hosted two evenings of the Beatles ‘ concerts. The Theater Adriano was sold in 1984, and transformed into the Cinema Adriano. The multiroom cinema opened in 2000, and is now part of the Ferrero group.

I am a lover of travels to Europe , Americas , Africa and Asia as well ,who like to share my experiences of the last 53 years with the world, visiting so far 81 countries; living in 6, working in 5, and Citizen of 4, speaking fluently 4 languages. I can deal with sports especially football/soccer and love music, arts, wine collector/drinker, and go out to restaurants, and just visit the world. My background comes all the way from Candelaria and Pajara in Tenerife, Spain where my grandparents came from ;not knowing each other then, to Punta Brava, west of Havana, Cuba. There , my parents born in Cuba met and later on I was born there too. 100% guanche (annexed Tenerife to Spain on April 10 ,1496). I left Cuba as many have to Madrid, Spain where I lived for 4 years. Then, move to Perth Amboy ,New Jersey USA (living there 13 yrs) ; where I completed high school, became a US Citizen, learned to drive a car, and learned English. Afterward, went to the university in Florida, ERAU, and upon graduation decided to moved there to Ormond by the Sea, near Daytona Beach, finally moving North Miami, then Hialeah, then another moved to Silver Lakes division in Miramar, Broward county, Florida; in Florida I lived a total of 18 years. Finally , moved to France in 2003 ,Versailles call me for its royalty, and working in Paris was great. It was time to seek frontiers again and moved to Brech near Auray, Morbihan in Brittany , and later move to not too far Pluvigner. Total so far in France has been 20 years, and counting. Moving average a home every 5.5 years hopefully this will be my last. Cheers All rights reserved.
