Description
Beyond mainstage performances, the lineup includes children's shows and lectures. The space functioned as a cinema from 1973 to 1987 before passing through incarnations as Théâtre du Triomphe and Comédie Contrescarpe, adopting its current name in 2024. Inside, seating is arranged around a very visible stage, with single-entry rows that lack a far aisle.
