Friendship Theater was built in 1965, and for most of its history was known as the largest and most famous theater in Guangdong Province, even building a following overseas. Chinese garden-style decor blended with modern architecture has helped make it fashionable, comfortable and very successful. The theater has just finished undergoing a year-long restoration, and should be open again to the general public within a month of this writing. With an expanded stage, and 200 fewer seats, the new five-star Friendship Theater can still hold over 1,300 theater-goers.
Friendship Theater, which belongs to Guangdong Provincial Art Center, is widely multi-functional. Its theater shows are mostly Chinese opera and dramas, but it also puts on concerts and international dance performances. Tickets range from 60-580 RMB.
