Teatro Tapia

San Juan · Puerto Rico · Theatre

In Box 105 of San Juan's venerable theatre, a lady in turn-of-the-century dress is said to appear mid-performance – then dissolve into thin air.

Teatro Tapia on Plaza Colón opened in 1832 and is one of the oldest theatres still in use in the Western Hemisphere. Audience members and actors alike tell of an elegant woman in Edwardian-era dress who appears in Box 105 during performances.

No one knows for certain who she was, but she has become a cherished part of Old San Juan's theatrical lore.
