CORFU. Mon Repos ΄Rena Vlachopoulou΄ Theatre didn΄t open in the summer even though it had been announced that it would.
The new Chairperson of the Board Evaggelia Radou explained that the fire safety survey hadn't been completed although the preparations had reached a stage where they had felt confident enough to officially announce that it would open in summer 2018.
At the first press conference since she took up her appointment in July 2018 the new chairperson said there had still been work to be completed in the theatre construction but the main issue was the fire safety permit which was absolutely necessary.
The construction work has now been completed - the old seating was removed and special fire-proof material put in. So, newly-renovated and following three summers of inactivity, the theatre will open in summer 2019 with international and Greek artists and companies.
