Comédie Bastille

Comédie Bastille is a theater building in Paris's 11th arrondissement with a modern auditorium seating around 188 people. The stage hosts contemporary dramatic works and performances based on classic French literature throughout the year.

The venue originated in 1985 from a converted woodworking workshop under the name Théâtre des cinquante. It relocated to its present location and underwent significant renovation work in subsequent years.

The venue programs a diverse mix of theatrical works, from socially conscious pieces to retellings of literary classics and musical performances. Visitors encounter a range of artistic styles and subject matter that reflects the neighborhood's cultural needs and interests.

The space is accessible for visitors with reduced mobility and connects easily to Paris public transport. The nearby metro stations Richard-Lenoir and Chemin Vert make it simple to reach from different parts of the city.

Director Christophe Segura undertook extensive renovations in 2015 that particularly modernized the entrance hall. These changes reflect the house's focus on contemporary facilities while keeping its artistic direction intact.
