OUR HISTORY
The History of the Quintero Theater dates back to the twenties of the last century.
The Quintero Theater began as a cinema, the Pathé Cinema. The Pathé, as it was known in the city. It was the first cinema conceived as such since its inauguration on October 18, 1925. The construction of the premises was carried out by Juan Talavera Heredia and the inauguration, in which a film by Harlod Lloyd was screened, was attended by the infants Don Carlos and Doña Louise.
After closing in the eighties, it would be a nightclub and television set until the journalist Jesús Quintero undertakes, with the help of the architect Juan Ruesga, the remodeling that we know today, and that leads to the integration of cinema, theater, television and communication.
Quintero is a speaker for prominent publications and the author of books, such as Cuerda de Prisoners and Trece Nights , both published by Editorial Planeta.
He started at Radio Nacional de España, where he developed a good part of his professional career.
The crazy man on the hill , his most emblematic program, was the greatest revolution in Spanish radio, to which he contributed a new style that has created a school.
The madman crossed the limits of the radio to become a true social phenomenon whose fame crossed the ocean and reached Argentina and Uruguay.
He is an Andalusian who loves Andalusia and knows its keys and its characters, but who feels universal and open to other worlds, especially to Latin America.
He is a provocateur, an actor, a showman, a restless and sagacious journalist, a story seeker, who talks from you to you, intimately or who asks point-blank questions. You can turn intimacy into a show.
