- Do you like the local theatre, Gabriel? - Yes, I love its style: the red seats with the big curtain. I also find the plays very entertaining. - I agree, Gabriel ! They are always interesting and the actors have a lot of talent. But the seats are a bit uncomfortable. - Yes, because they are quite old. And the tickets can be expensive sometimes. - Yes, that's a shame because the theatre is a very special place.
