Fun and entertainment Ile-De-France

Built in 1902, the theater was once a municipal village hall. It took on its present name in 1960, in tribute to the famous actor, and gradually began to focus on the presentation of contemporary texts. Referred to by the acronym TGP, it also offers a wide range of workshops, and is involved in numerous initiatives with local associations. It is also home to the Saint-Denis Jazz Club, which offers regular concerts. The TGP also boasts a restaurant, Cuisine Club, and a bookshop, La P'tite Denise.

A long-standing address for artists'magazines, the Ten Hour Theatre today presents some man shows and loud comedies. At the location of this 1890 th place hall, there was first a cabaret of arts inaugurated in. He took his current name in 1925 under the direction of Roger Ferréol. He borrowed him from a Tirade tirade - in Les Linottes - referring to the fortune enjoyed by a theatre if he presented gay shows at 10 a. m. With artists such as Martini, Noël-Noël, Dalio, Saint-Granier, Jean Rigaux, Marguerite Moreno, Jeanne Fusier-Irm, he succeeded in creating a loyal audience. From the 1950 s, new talents are emerging: Oleo, Jean Breton, Jean Poiret, Michel Serrault, Anne-Marie Carrière, Thierry Le Luron… In the early 1980 s, the Ten Hour Theatre was directed towards theatre, notably under the direction of Michel Galabru and his son. You can see it by Mom or give me your linen, I make a machine, Didier Bénureau and Muriel Robin. He was the sponsor of the place when Michel Joyeau and Michel Miletti took their head in 1990 - in partnership with Just for Laughs since 2007. Laughter and song are in the spotlight. In the first category come to work Elie and Dieudonné, Franck Dubosc, Patrick Bosso, Stéphane Guillon, the Jamel Comedy Club… And in the second: Juliette, Marie-Paule Belle, Guy Montagné, Hervé Vilard, Nicole Croisille…

Located next door to the Folies Bergère, the Théâtre Trévise is one of Paris's top addresses for laughter. And it's the freedom of tone that characterizes this theater. The stage is open to young talent, as well as world music and dance. Some are nervous, others promising, and even some future greats perform here. Jamel Debbouze, Eric et Ramzy and many others have performed at Le Trévise. The stage is open to artists who want to join the Festival international d'expression artistique libre et désordonnée.

The Bout was created by the company Les Cousins d'Arnolphe, which had the project to give the café-theatre the letters of nobility it deserves, to prove that it is a full theatrical discipline, a formidable way to address the essential issues of life. Their performances have travelled through the halls of Paris and elsewhere, with the support of Sylvie Joly, Yves Lecoq, Philippe Bouvard or Catherine Lachens, patron of the Café-Theatre school who sits at the End. The site opened in 1999. With 50 seats, the Bout Square room features mainly one man shows and the creations of the house troupe. In addition, there are open scene evenings and children's shows. In 2007, a second room was opened. Named The Round Round, it is specialised in the stand-up. Here is a little Bout with great ambitions!

This beautiful green area is located in the Bois de Boulogne, in the heart of the Domaine de Pré Catelan. From May to October, there are classic pieces on a lawn that can accommodate four hundred people. The theatre is in the heart of the Shakespeare Garden. The classics that often come back to honour: Les Scapin de Schemer de Molière, Jules Caesar of William Shakespeare, Volpone of Ben Jonson, The Tour de'd'Alexandre Dumas… Perfect for a sweet summer evening!

The theater's name refers to a former venue located nearby, at 50 rue de Malte. Opened in 1866, it disappeared in 1967 after having been one of Paris's leading music-hall venues. It hosts concerts of chanson, rock, world music and jazz, as well as musicals, magic shows and comedy. It can accommodate 500 to 800 people and is housed in a building dating from 1911. At the time of writing, several shows are on offer, including the musical "Holidays", a tribute to Madonna.

Inaugurated in 1971, Theatre 71 became a national scene in 1992. His program is accompanied by beautiful theatre, dance or music creations, and, originality of the place, puppets.

Located in an old small factory, this location in Ménilmontant can contain three hundred and fifty people. The room has a mezzanine. The musical program is eclectic and quality. The following went: Magic Malik, Cheikh Tidiane Seck, Katerine, Louis Bertignac, Omar Sosa, Gabriel Yaqoop… Film projections are also organized. It is one of the most atypical halls in the capital, a place where listening music to the mezzanine bar becomes an electrifying experience.

More than ten years after its opening, the challenge has largely been met. Indeed, the Centquatre brings together in a single, very large space, various sites of artistic creation and production open to all disciplines, and which offer various shows, screenings, readings, performances, exhibitions, workshops for young people or adults... What a lively place, on the very spot where the municipal undertaker's service - a building dating back to 1873 - was in operation until 1997. The Centquatre, or 104, which is a place of art, you have understood, is also a place of life. Restaurants, brasseries and shops are spread out in the immensity of the place.

Radio France, which brings together all public radio stations, plays an important role in the world of music. Four groups depend on it: the Orchestre national de France conducted by Daniele Gatti, the Orchestre philharmonique de Radio France conducted by the Finnish Mikko Franck, and the Maîtrise de Radio France, conducted by Sofi Jeannin. The Radio France choir is the partner of the other three groups. The latter perform in several halls in the capital and elsewhere, but also in the walls of the "round house". This amazing building has just been completely renovated. The new auditorium is a concert hall with 1,461 seats, installed in balconies and distributed around the stage and musicians. The spectator is never more than 17 m from the stage. The acoustics are fabulous. Another room: Studio 104, with its 856 seats, welcomes all musical genres and major programmes from Radio France channels. Finally, studios 105 (237 seats) and 106 (137 seats) are dedicated to public broadcasts and more intimate concerts. Every Saturday, guided tours allow you to discover the history of the round house.

There are two auditoriums, one seating 102, the other 64. The program is varied: theater, musicals and many shows for young audiences. We're located in the cellars of a former coaching inn. The venue was originally opened to contemporary theater by a troupe of five actors led by Régis Santon in the 1970s. José Valverde succeeded him until 1987, then Alida Latessa in 1995. It was she who created the second venue, dedicated to song. The ensemble offers a rich program.

The Bound opened in 2005 instead of the B * Fly. The bar of the bar is not only imposing but creamy pink. In the room there are alcoves surmounted by plasma screens that broadcast post-modern paintings, beads of pearls, thermoplastic leather chairs, Murano chandeliers… This chic place is a bar, but also a restaurant where you can use sushi. In the evening, resident Djs leave their rock discs. An evening to the successful Champs-Elysées in perspective.

It's a celebration of love and the magic of Paris: the not-to-be-missed revue features dance and song numbers - including the French cancan - making it one of the capital's must-sees. Inaugurated in 1803 by Napoleon and rebuilt after a fire by Gustave Eiffel in 1889, the Paradis Latin presents revues, including the current one, "L'Oiseau Paradis", imagined by choreographer Kamel Ouali. But the offer doesn't stop there, as other shows are also on offer, starting with those dedicated to children, with the family show "Mon Premier Cabaret".

A small corner of Brussels in the 20^th! In this bar you can discover many Belgian beers (draught beer or in bottle) at perfectly reasonable prices, accompanied by a bag of chips of course. For those who are not hop lovers can be reassured, the cucumber mojito is worth a try! Theme evenings are regularly organised, such as the "Mussels Party" on Wednesday, devoted, as you can imagine, to beer. Guaranteed atmosphere! You can even play pinball or baby-soccer - so rare nowadays - or board games. A very good place to start the aperitif, or even a snack with the famous Liège waffles. Le Bouillon is particularly popular on game nights.

The huge room, with the upper ceiling and the western American decor, welcomes visitors to fourbus after an exhausting walk in the park. In the restaurant bar, named the Saddle Bar, horse stools serve as seats. Ropin and cowboy tools on the walls complement the decor. The barbecue kitchen is inspired by the sidewalk canteens and offers smoked pork, smoked chicken legs and smoked sausages. At Red Garter Saloon, you relax between two quadrilles at the rhythm of th century country music.

Located in the Charras shopping center in Courbevoie, Rastignac is an elegant restaurant serving fine traditional French cuisine. In addition to its refined gastronomy, the restaurant also organizes dance evenings to entertain its guests.

Recognizable by its superb façade depicting a dancer, the Elysée Montmartre was listed as a Monument Historique in 1989. Before it was a concert hall, it was a ballroom dating from 1807, made up of three buildings and equipped with a metal structure from the Pavillon de France, designed by Gustave Eiffel for the 1889 Universal Exhibition. Numerous events are held here, starting with concerts, and the line-up - as we close this guide - is impressive: Brent Fayaz, Peter Cat Recording, Oscar Anton...

Two large sunny terraces, the lapping of the water, the play of light on the canal: 25 Degrés Est is a must at the end of the Bassin de la Villette. Prices are affordable, and there's a snack bar available at all hours. However, we'd advise you to come here simply to enjoy the terrace and have a drink, and not to linger in the restaurant room, which is certainly pleasant, but rather dark. Please note that the restaurant is very busy, and places on the terrace are expensive, especially on sunny days.

" Here they sold their soul to rock! " The rock is presented in all its forms, in concert mainly, but also thanks to Djs.

It is not for nothing that some first year classes of kindergarten travel through Paris just to come and watch some classics and new movies. On the floor of the theatre, there is a very pleasant restaurant and bar which offers a selection of very good wines. The History of Cinéma des Cinéastes is huge. In the 19th century, the establishment was the cabaret of Père Lathuille before becoming Le Kursaal visited by Maurice Chevalier. Abandoned after 1945, the cinema was updated with new colours during the prosperous period of the Nouvelle Vague. But it was in 1987, thanks to Claude Berri in the Civil Society of Auteurs, Réalisateurs et Producteurs (L'ARP), that the establishment became an unavoidable place for movie lovers. Three rooms make up this theatre including the great, absolutely beautiful one, referring to the heyday of the Seventh Art.

Once sunk on a period seat you can start your journey in the heart of the night. One of the advantages of the place compared to the rest of the street institutions is that you don't have to shout to talk to each other. It's ideal for a little committee chat.

This legendary venue, with its chaotic past (it was threatened with demolition in the early 1980s, but underwent extensive renovation in the late 2000s), is one of our most popular venues. Formerly dedicated to seated shows, the Casino de Paris also presents a wide variety of shows, including concerts, evening events, fashion shows, revues, one-man shows... Today, with its emphasis on comedy, the venue regularly sells out, and it's not uncommon to see long queues stretching along the sidewalk of this gently sloping street.

What more can we say except that Entre deux eaux is a gay bar, entirely naturist and largely sex-oriented. Special evenings are organized every month, including "show your tattoo" and "dildos available". No backrooms for the shy. Feel free to visit the establishment's website. A newsletter is also available.

This is one of the most dynamic addresses in Parisian public theater.

A bar to test, for movie fans as well as for lovers of big atmosphere!

"Paris je t'aime" is the title of the revue presented here. Dances, including the unmissable French cancan, comic attractions, mime, juggling, acrobatics... are all part of the program at this two-hundred-and-eighty-seat venue, which opened in 1949. From the very first years, the shows featured talents such as Erté and Balenciaga. The trend was set, and La Nouvelle Eve has continued to offer its spectators sparkling shows. If you opt for the dinner-concert option, the food is excellent. In short, a must.

It was a long time ago the Thermik, it became an LGBT bar but curly-friendly, rather quiet day, electric in the evening, suitable for aspiring rums or cocktails. The staff were friendly and helpful.

At the top, it's a fairly classical pub with its long bar of skated wood where beer flows. The students of the Sorbonne love to find themselves here, as well as tourists visiting the Pantheon. Quiet recreation, nice discussions, but as soon as the evening starts, the bar is filled with revellers. This is where you discover the basement, a vaulted cellar where you can enjoy a careful playlist. The atmosphere warms up and we quickly left to celebrate all night long.

In the shade of the trees, on this vast terrace that looks like a veritable outdoor garden, a trendy crowd sips chilled cocktails, accompanied by salads, charcuterie platters or bruschettas. It's almost like being in Berlin, especially on DJ nights. With such a lively atmosphere, Café A is very popular.

Imagine what an American pub can offer in tribute to the legendary co-founder of the Métallica group, guitarist and singer James Hetfield.

It is more than 60 metres high and offers a spectacular view of the Champs Elysées, the Tuileries, the Louvre.
