Théâtre Mogador, Historical theatre in the 9th arrondissement, France
The Théâtre Mogador is a theatre building in Paris's 9th arrondissement that seats approximately 1,800 visitors across multiple levels. Its interior and exterior design feature Moorish architectural details with ornate decorations and patterns throughout.
The theatre was founded in 1913 and opened its doors two years later under a different name. After World War I ended, it was renamed to honour a historic place in Morocco, becoming the venue people know today.
The theatre became a gathering place for performers from around the world who brought their talents to its stage. Local audiences developed a deep connection to the venue as it shaped the entertainment life of the neighbourhood for generations.
The venue is located at 25 Rue de Mogador, making it easy to find in the neighbourhood. Climate control systems keep the space comfortable for all visitors throughout the year.
The name comes not from the theatre's original identity but was chosen later to connect with a North African city. This unusual naming reflects how the venue drew performers and audiences from around the world.
