Dear Audience,

I am writing to you with the confidence that you are well on the eve of a new beginning.

I have the certainty that a challenging and tough year is coming to an end. We have lived unexpected months since last March.

Nonetheless, the Teatro Colón has been active and close to its audience through its web site and social media. All of these months we have been able to carry on with our artistic and cultural proposals thanks to Sunday streamings, specific children’s content and all audiences programmes on our electronic channels to millions of people around the world.

At the same time, we had to face unpredicted tasks such as the creation of face masks in our workshops, the volunteers' work of our staff collaborating with the community and creating a special system for the devolution of almost 140.000 tickets, which has been achieved thanks to your invaluable comprehension.

I would like to give a special thank you to those who have donated the value of their tickets, not only because of the acknowledgement gesture for our Teatro Colón, but for the collaboration at this critical moment.

......

I wish everyone to stay safe for 2021, a year that for sure will be of gathering and celebration. This is my desire for all of you and for our beloved theatre.

A toast for a new year full of reunions.


María Victoria Alcaraz
General Director, Teatro Colón
