It is well known that the issue of infrastructure is burning and hurting Patras. Finding a place for a cultural event, especially in winter, is extremely difficult, with the options available at the fingertips of one hand. And those that are left are specific and of a specific capacity, unable to meet all needs.
So far, this problem has been limited, during the winter, as the summer has increasingly found a way to cover these deficiencies, mainly in terms of theater performances and club events.
As is known, the Roman Conservatory and this year it is outside, while the only place to once once more host large-scale performances, which visit Patras as part of a tour, is the Summer Municipal Theater of the Municipality with whatever weaknesses it has.
But what regarding smaller events organized by the city’s amateurs as well as several clubs? As we know, events like these also had venues the three theaters located in the city, such as that of Marina, Itea and Krini, where the Amateur Theater Festival every year as part of the Patras International Festival.
This year, however, it seems that things are difficult in this area as well, as according to his information pelop.gr, all three of these “little theaters” present problems, with deadlines pressing as the summer months are just a breath away.
So according to our information, the Marina theater is out as there are problems with its electrical infrastructure. It is also without infrastructure Little theater in Ities. In fact, in the past there had also been thefts from behind the scenes of the theater as we were informed.
And to all this comes to be added the Theater of the Fountain, where, as we wrote above, the Amateur Theater Festival takes place. Not long ago, the City Council approved a contract to fix some major issues it was facing. According to the contractor’s forecasts, the works are expected to be completed by June, but this is not a sure thing.
With all of the above, one can understand that the summer is predicted to be… difficult in terms of the events of both the amateurs and the various clubs, which during the summer presented their productions.
Of course, at the moment we don’t even know what is going to happen during the summer, since even though it’s the end of April, we still don’t know a single word regarding what will happen as part of the Patras International Festival!
