Ladies and Gentlemen, allow me to introduce: La Comédie

Description

Vincent Dedienne and Sami Bouajila would be impressed. La Nouvelle Comédie has had a makeover. In case you didn't know, they're two French actors who happen to have studied drama at the Ecole Supérieure d’Arts Dramatiques de La Comédie de Saint-Étienne.

This institution has been creating shows and training actors for 90 years. And it has seen some talent pass through its doors: writers, actors, wardrobe mistresses/masters, directors... and more recently, joiners, electricians and carpenters. The renovation work took two years, but it was worth it. La Nouvelle Comédie now has 8000 m² of space, two large auditoria, a rehearsal room, two studios for the students, a bar, a restaurant and terrasse. So much more than just a theatre, a place full of life…
