      On this special tour, let us guide you through its fascinating history, the magic of its architecture and what goes on behind the scenes. From backstage to the dressing rooms, via the stage, you'll explore the emblematic and secret spaces of this emotionally-charged venue, usually reserved for artists and technical crews.

      This tour invites you to plunge into the heart of this Italian-style theater, considered one of the most beautiful in the Paris region.

      Built in 1905 by architects Fernand Lucas and Paul Marion, and inaugurated in 1912, this Louis XIII-style building, now a listed historic monument, stands a stone's throw from the Château de Fontainebleau. A privileged witness to the rich cultural life of the imperial city, it reveals a fascinating history that our guide will be delighted to share with you throughout the visit.

      The 475-seat theater offers total immersion in this enchanting setting during the many scheduled performances. With its elegant red velvet seats, it impresses with the richness of its décor. Your guide will help you appreciate every detail, from the trompe-l'œil painted dome to the metal lantern, not forgetting the gilded stage frame crowned with the town's coat of arms.

      You'll also have the privilege of accessing spaces usually closed to the public, reserved for artists and technicians. These confidential areas will give you a better understanding of how the theater works, and allow you to discover the artists' preparation areas, where numerous autographs are sure to surprise you.
