Proposed Edits
I plan to do a complete overhaul of this article. Since this article is so plain, I will be responsible for trying to translate the Brazilian Portuguese version into English. That would be the first step in improving this article. I will then crosscheck the information on both articles and add viable references. I will also make sure to add a section on theater for Native and Afro-Brazilian people and how it worked into this particular theater. Another section will be dedicated to some of the most famous directors and playwrights that have gone through the theater.I will also make sure to make all the information is accessible to a public audience.

Peer Review
I think that the proposed edits will really help improve this article. Due to the shortness of the article, I think that it is in need of all of these changes. I would start on the Portuguese version of the article, but also try to reach out and find English sources to build up the information that way as well! So far these sources look good.

In addition to translating the Portuguese version, I would also recommend looking for other English sources with information about the theater. But the Portuguese article is a great start, and may even use some good English sources.

Looks like you're off to a good start! There is a part of the first sentence that looks like it needs to be finished. I would also like to see more information about the physical building itself if possible. Additionally, I like the list of productions that you have provided, as it gives a better impression of the importance of the theater.

I love the current edits and think that things are headed in the right direction. The timeline really provides a straight-forward way to understand the information. I agree with the above reviewer that there needs to be more about the physical building, but overall great work and keep editing! Dgenners (talk) 17:10, 1 April 2018 (UTC)
