Théâtre des Champs-Élysées, Art Deco theatre in 8th arrondissement, France
The Théâtre des Champs-Élysées is a theatre building with three performance halls located on Avenue Montaigne. The façade features three large relief sculptures representing dance, music, and drama.
Architects Auguste Perret and Henry van de Velde designed the structure in 1913 as one of Paris's first Art Deco buildings. A year later, the premiere of Stravinsky's Rite of Spring sparked heated debate among the audience.
The name comes from the famous avenue where it stands. Today, visitors come to experience concerts and opera in a place known for its connection to modern music.
The building offers wheelchair access and hosts regular performances. It is best to check the website or call ahead to learn about the schedule and specific access details.
The relief sculptures were created by artist Antoine Bourdelle and decorate the entire front of the building. These works often go unnoticed by visitors who focus on other details of the façade.
