CABARET "EL PLATA", ZARAGOZA, SPAIN (Explore! ⭐ February 14, 2023)

            "El Plata" is a café singer with cabaret shows in Zaragoza (Spain) located on Calle Cuatro de Agosto, 23, in the urban sector of the Zaragoza capital known as "El Tubo", next to Puerta Cinegia.

HISTORY: It was founded in 1920, with the name of "La Conga", in the fashionable era of tangos and in which 40 young ladies worked to attend to the parishioners.

The cost was 0.25 pesetas per piece (currently 0.0015 euros, although it would have to be updated due to inflation in the last 100 years), of which fifteen cents were for them and ten for the house.

"La Conga" was closed by the dictatorship of General Miguel Primo de Rivera, although it reopened again after a few months.

At the beginning of the 1940s, it took the name "El Plata", as a café-singer, with three daily performances.

Among his public were mixed the agrarian landowners —those in "the beret"— and the soldiers from the nearby San Gregorio barracks and the General Military Academy.

The afternoon session was traditionally known as "the beret", although its fame would spread throughout Spain thanks to the young men who completed their military service in Zaragoza.

Artists from the copla and the magazine of the time paraded through its stage.

It was common for some of the most popular artists to reach the category of "house", which were the most popular and with long-term contracts.

On May 3, 1992, "El Plata" was closed to make reforms. The Municipal Housing Society declared it a "historic enclave".

The reform and expansion project lasted for sixteen years, until, on June 12, 2008, coinciding with the Zaragoza International Exposition of that year, "El Plata" was reopened. (Source: Wikipedia)

"El Plata" es un café cantante con espectáculos de cabaré de Zaragoza (España) situado en la calle Cuatro de Agosto, 23, en el sector urbano de la capital zaragozana conocido como "El Tubo", junto a la Puerta Cinegia.

HISTORIA: Fue fundado en 1920, con el nombre de "La Conga", en la época de moda de los tangos y en el que trabajaban 40 señoritas para atender a los parroquianos.

El coste era de 0.25 pesetas la pieza (actualmente 0.0015 euros, aunque habría que actualizar por la inflacción en los últimos 100 años), de los cuales quince céntimos eran para ellas y diez para la casa.

"La Conga" fue cerrado por la dictadura del General Miguel Primo de Rivera, aunque reabierto de nuevo a los pocos meses.

Al comienzo de la década de 1940 tomó el nombre «El Plata», como café-cantante, con tres funciones diarias.

Entre su público se mezclaban los terratenientes agrarios —los de «la boina»— y los militares del próximo cuartel de San Gregorio y la Academia General Militar.

La sesión de la tarde era tradicionalmente conocida como la de «la boina», si bien su fama se extendería por España gracias a los mozos que cumplieron en Zaragoza su servicio militar.

Por su escenario desfilaron artistas de la copla y la revista de la época.

Era habitual que algunas de las artistas más populares alcanzasen la categoría como «de la casa», que eran las más populares y con contratos de larga duración.

El 3 de mayo de 1992 se cerró "El Plata", para hacer reformas. La Sociedad Municipal de la Vivienda lo declaró "enclave histórico".

El proyecto de reforma y ampliación se prolongó durante dieciséis años, hasta que, el 12 de junio de 2008, coincidiendo con la Exposición Internacional de Zaragoza de ese año, se reabrió "El Plata". (Fuente: Wikipedia)
