THÉÂTRE DE L’ATELIER
This beautiful th-century theatre is located on one of the most poetic squares in Paris. You are here in a former village created in 1802 by a certain Orsel, who gave its name to the street which makes corner with Charles-Dullin square. A small wooden room designed by the architect Haudebourg named Montmartre Theatre is here in 1822. In 1907, transformations were made in the room by the architect Gilbert Duron. After the First World War, the theatre became the Montmartre Ciné. In 1922, he returned to theatrical art with the appointment of Charles Dullin to the artistic direction of the site. He has just founded a company, the Workshop, which will be given to the room. During the Occupation, Dullin works in the theatre of Paris and Sarah-Bernhardt - the current theatre of the City. The workshop is now led by its collaborator, director and decorator André Barsacq, founder of the Four Seasons company. He died in 1973 and his children took over the torch, that they passed to Pierre Franck and, for two years, to Loïc Volard. Laura Pels will succeed them in 1999. Among the many pieces we will see then include: Cocteau-Marais, show designed and directed by Jean Marais and Jean-Luc Tardieu, L'Antichambre de Jean-Claude Brisville, staged by Jean-Pierre Miquel, Le Bonnet de madman de Pirandello, staged by Laurent Terzieff, L'Hiver under Roland Topor's table…
