Théâtre Édouard VII, Historic theater in 9th arrondissement, Paris, France

The Théâtre Édouard VII stands at 10, place Édouard-VII in the 9th arrondissement, between the Madeleine and the Palais Garnier. Its pale stone facade has three round arches on columns at ground level, a long horizontal sign reading "THEATRE EDOUARD VII" with large red-outlined letters, and an upper colonnade; terraces sit in front.

The theatre was originally a cinema and was named after King Edward VII, nicknamed "the most Parisian of all Kings" for his appreciation of French culture. In 1916 Alphonse Franck took over its direction, and from 1919 works by Sacha Guitry such as Je t'aime and Le Comédien were staged. At the end of 1931 Twentieth Century Fox ran the house as a cinema until 1940, when it returned to theatre under Robert Gallois.

The theatre is also known as théâtre Édouard VII – Sacha Guitry, after the actor-manager whose plays, including Je t'aime and Désiré, were staged here in the 1920s. It was named for King Edward VII, called the "most Parisian of all Kings" for his fondness for French culture. Modern boulevard comedies and vaudevilles are often subtitled in English by the company Theatre in Paris.

The theatre stands at 10, place Édouard-VII, in the 9th arrondissement, on the square opened in 1911 with its statue of King Edward VII, between the Madeleine and the Palais Garnier. The entrance is through the three round arches of the pale stone facade, where the sign reads "Theatre EDOUARD VII". Terraces sit in front of the building.

The theatre is also known as théâtre Édouard VII – Sacha Guitry, and its square, opened in 1911, holds a statue of King Edward VII. Orson Welles and Eartha Kitt performed on its stage. In 1944 Pablo Picasso created props for a play here.
