The replacement Cine Teatro Carlos Gomes was opened in April 1935. It operated as a cinema until 1963, when it was closed and abandoned. Re-opened in 1988, it is now operated by the State, it is used for live theatre only, hosting Brazilian musicals, International plays and concerts, it is one of the largest theatres in Rio de Janeiro.
