A fire broke out early Tuesday morning in the center of Naples has caused serious damage to the building of the historic Sannazaro Theatrebuilt in 1847. The flames have also affected several apartments and caused four people to be poisoned.
According to the first reconstruction of what happened, the fire started as a result of a short circuit inside of the theater and spread quickly, affecting a large part of the building on the central Via Chiaia. The dome of the theater has been completely destroyed, according to the Italian press.
In some images published by Neapolitan residents on social networks, flames can be seen devouring an apartment in a condominium adjacent to the historic theater, built mainly of wood.
The building, a theater production center with an important history, is located in one of the most touristic areas of the city.
Neighbors denounced the unbreathable air and many were forced to leave their homes. Four people had to be treated for poisoning. “We have been at home with the windows closed and handkerchiefs covering our noses since 5 in the morning,” a neighbor told Corriere del Mezzogiorno.
Lara Sansone, the owner of the Sannazaro and granddaughter of the famous actress Luisa Conte, immediately arrived at the place with her husband, Sasà Vanorio, and she could be seen very affected when she contemplated the state in which the theater has been left.
