Teatro Nacional (National Theatre)
The National Theatre inaugurated in 1908 assumes the highest place in the arts scene of Panama. It is built on a place that was previously thought to be an 18th century monastery. In earlier times,the National Theatre was a very popular meeting ground among the social elite,but later it lost its charm and was rented out as a movie theatre. However,with couple of restorations in the 2000s,the theatre has gained back its previous status. Along with the performance,the ceiling frescoes by Panamanian artist Robert Lewis are worth a mention.
