Théâtre Charles-Dullin, Italian-style theatre in Chambéry, France
The Charles Dullin Theatre features a horseshoe-shaped auditorium with four galleries, reflecting the architectural style of nineteenth-century Italian performance venues.
After a fire destroyed the original 1824 structure in 1864, architects Charles-Bernard Pellegrini and Joseph-Samuel Revel rebuilt the theatre, completing it in 1866.
The theatre maintains its historical decorative elements, including sculptures by Delécole, paintings by Bin, and stage designs by Chenillion from the Marseille Opera.
The venue accommodates 450 spectators and requires written applications for performance space submitted to the Cultural Affairs Directorate by April 15 annually.
The theatre contains one of the last remaining original stage curtains from the 1860s, which received specific heritage protection status.
