Teatro Colón is famous for its perfect acoustics, so much so that it is said that if you drop a coin on the stage, its sound can be heard from any corner of the auditorium. Additionally, many world-renowned opera singers have claimed that performing at Colón is one of the greatest honors of their careers.

And here comes a fun fact: During one of the first performances after its inauguration, a cat decided to make the stage its favorite spot. While the artists were preparing, the cat appeared and settled in the center of the stage. Instead of scaring it away, the audience had so much fun that they applauded its impromptu performance. Since then, it is said that Teatro Colón has its own feline "pet".
