The main floor contains seats for about 800 people, which, combined with the balcony and gallery, makes accommodations for over a thousand spectators. In addition to the main lecture hall, which contains a large organ, there are several dressing rooms, lobbies, rest rooms, and check rooms, which complete the equipment...

The question has at last been settled in a way to repair...
