It’s hard to stand out architecturally in Havana, with its many elaborate, often worn-down, character-filled facades. However, I have an odd attraction to his humble theater. Though I’m not sure why.

It could be the pale blue color or the unusual theater design. There is no marquee. It’s just the ground floor of what appears to be an apartment building. It may be the bold blue stylized neon. I’m always a sucker for neon.

I didn’t expect much when Googling for this modest place, but I found this article called El Megano Cinema: A Dark & Safe Place. It sounds like it looks, though that article was from fifteen years ago. Google Maps now indicates it’s permanently closed. Even if it were open, I wouldn’t go exploring by myself. I would have to be in a large group to feel safe. Though the place still looks fascinating to visit. I bet the neon would look cool at night.
