La Coursive/Scène Nationale La Rochelle, Performance arts venue in La Rochelle, France
La Coursive incorporates three distinct performance spaces: the Grand Theatre with 997 seats, Theatre Verdiere with 385 seats, and Salle Bleue with 281 seats.
The Theatre Verdiere building, constructed in 1881 by Charles François Bunel, initially served as departmental archives before its transformation into a performance space.
The venue presents over sixty productions each season, including theater performances, dance shows, jazz concerts, classical music events, and independent film screenings.
Visitors can purchase tickets through the official website, with early access provided to subscribers on December 6 and general sales opening on December 13.
A technical tunnel connects all three performance halls, enabling efficient movement of production equipment and personnel between the different spaces.
