Music & Theatre in Ciudad Obregon
Dr. Oscar Russo Vogel Theater
Built by architects Hirom Marcor and Heberto Martinez, Teatro Oscar Russo Vogel opened its doors for the first time on September 16, 1967
Above the entrance to the museum is a large colorful mural spanning the entire front of building that was produced by master Hector Martínez Arteche.
