Théâtre de la Renaissance
Théâtre de la Renaissance, on boulevard Saint-Martin, belongs to the row of theatres built in the 19th century in the boulevard district, then a hub of Parisian theatre life. It has undergone several reconstructions and changes of management over the decades, shaped in part by notable figures of theatre and music hall.
Its façade and interior retain the ornamental style typical of the period, with gilding and velvet that immediately set a theatrical mood. Programming mixes comedies and repertoire pieces accessible to a wide audience. Tip: book a seat in the stalls to fully enjoy the room's volume and acoustics.
