‘reina victoria theatre’ by enrique abascal arquitectosspanish firm enrique abascal arquitectos, has developed the ‘reina victoria theatre’ in the northern province of huelva, spain. the makeover 

of the abandoned mining town has since promoted the construction of public buildings, carrying alongside a spatial and social transformation 
within the city. drawing from the area’s long tradition of communal cultural spaces, the incorporation of a building capable of contributing
entertainment accommodates the promotion of various activities within a multidisciplinary container.
