La Grande Comedie, Comedy theatre in rue de Clichy, Paris, France.
La Grande Comédie is a theatre on Rue de Clichy in the 9th arrondissement of Paris, with two performance spaces under the same roof. The main hall seats around 400 people and runs a rotating programme of comedy and solo shows.
The theatre opened in 2005 under the direction of Hazis Vardar, with a focus on boulevard comedy and solo performance. Over the years it has held its place as a steady address for this style of show in central Paris.
La Grande Comédie focuses on French boulevard comedies and solo shows that draw broad audiences in Paris. Visitors can see both familiar faces from French television and newer performers testing their material on stage.
The theatre sits close to several Metro stations, including Blanche, Liège, and Place de Clichy, making it easy to reach by public transport. It is air-conditioned and has accessible facilities for visitors with reduced mobility.
The venue runs up to seven different productions at the same time, which is rare for a theatre of this size. During school holidays it also adds children's shows to its programme, making it one of the few comedy theatres in the area to do so regularly.
