In the late 50s or early 60s, late actor Raúl Dávila, the late Helena Montalbán and Axel Anderson, formed the La Máscara theatre company and performed on this auditoriun during weekends for several years. When Raúl relocated to the US, Montalbàn and Anderson continued with the company. I am not sure if Braulio Castillo was part of the company also.

But the building says “Telegrafo” did it have multiple uses?
