Located at 17 boulevard Jourdan and accessible via Cité Universitaire metro station on line 6, visitors can purchase tickets online through the official website or directly at the box office.
The theatre maintains a 1925 dome structure within its modern renovation and features Elizabethan-inspired wooden interior design, creating a distinctive architectural blend that serves as a platform for experimental artistic forms.
