Théâtre Daunou, Art Deco theatre in 2nd arrondissement, France.
The Théâtre Daunou features a 450-seat auditorium with golden daisy patterns and signature blue colors selected by interior designer Jeanne Lanvin.
Commissioned by actress Jane Renouardt, architect Auguste Bluysen constructed the theatre in 1921 on the former site of a Capucines convent.
The theatre specializes in comedy productions, starting with its inaugural show 'Une sacrée petite blonde' by André Birabeau and Pierre Wolff.
Located at 7 rue Daunou near Opera metro station, the theatre continues to present regular performances in its renovated Art Deco setting.
The building's facade displays sphinx sculptures and masks in Empire style, which was considered outdated during its 1921 construction period.
