Review & FAQ:
Designed by two Italian architects, Avoscani and Rossi, the Khedive Opera House was constructed during a 6-month period in 1869. It was designed to promote the art of acting, and specialists in theater construction were brought to Egypt to complete the work. The original structure burned to the ground in October 1971, and the inauguration of the new Cairo Opera House was in 1988. Today, ballet, operatic, and symphonic works can be seen there. Seminars and cultural conferences are also held there regularly.
