Madeleine, the Theater District
Le Relais Madeleine is a very rich location in theaters, including:
- The Mathurins Theater
- The Daunou Theater
- The Edouard VII Theater
- The Madeleine Theater
- The Michodière Theater
- The Louis Jouvet Atheneum Theater
- The Caumartin Comedy Theater
- The Bruno Coquatrix Olympia on which we wrote a previous article,
Like many Parisian theaters, the majority of these theaters have a program centered on the "Boulevard Theater", whose repertory springs from the old boulevards of Paris that grew from the Second Empire. The Boulevard Theater register is, above all, one of entertainment, promoted by private theaters such as those mentioned above, with the exception of the Athenaeum.
As an example of what you will be able to see, we have selected 3 pieces, each in a very particular genre, fairly representative of the different theatrical styles that are proposed to you in the Parisian programming.
The 3 pieces suggested
