The Sala Umberto Theater was first opened in 1882, and it was used as a concert hall, and then it was developed and expanded to be used also for cinematography. The theater has been developed and restructured more than once since its foundation, so that it has now become one of the most important Romanian theaters in terms of the quality of the performances it presents and the great audience demand for it, which confirms in one way or another the extent of the success of this theater over these long years.
