Theater events Var

By taking the route of La Corniche from Toulon, or from Seyne and Saint-Mandrier, you will discover the Fort Balaguier on the seafront. A magical place with remarkable gardens where the theatre has enjoyed its success, and where the rooms come to enchant your summer evenings! Here, in open skies, the 2013 edition featured the plays of Marc Camoletti, Xavier Duranger, Philippe Claudel, Farcical, Eric-Emmanuel Schmitt, and the Chopin music, the comic opera Marseille my love, a lyric concert, El Botcho… An enchantment! Tickets can be purchased on site, but we recommend reserving in advance for the chance to see these shows. Take advantage of the museum and the gardens!

Created in 1985 by the late great Jean-Claude Brialy and Jacqueline Franjou as a tribute to Gérard Philipe, this festival lasts twelve days, from the end of July to mid-August. It is held in an exceptional setting, the Théâtre de Verdure, and sees classical or contemporary plays being performed, alternating with singing tours by French variety artists and renowned comedians. Since 2007, Michel Boujenah is the artistic director of the festival.
