The theatre was built between 1928 and 1929 for the Ibero-American Exhibition. Architect Vicente Traver Tomás designed it as part of the Seville Pavilion complex created for that major event.

The building sits near Maria Luisa Park and is easily accessible on foot. The theatre offers shows throughout the year and has facilities to accommodate visitors with mobility needs.
The theatre had its own electric generator system that provided independent power supply. This technical solution was remarkable in the early 20th century and reflected advanced engineering for the exhibition.
