Theaters Rouen

The Opéra de Rouen is the city's cultural institution, with two performance halls: the Théâtre des Arts and the Chapelle Corneille. Every year, 100,000 spectators flock here to enjoy top-quality operas, concerts and dance performances. All audiences are catered for, with performances for children and the visually and hearing impaired. We love the €5 ticket for under 28s and those on minimum social benefits. So this year, go for it!

To have a good time and laugh out loud, nothing beats an evening at the Théâtre à l'Ouest, Rouen's stage dedicated to comedy. This 180-seat venue, created by director Loïc Bonnet and presenter Bruno Roblès, now gives pride of place to comedians of all stripes with one-man and one-woman shows, stand-up comedy, improvisation shows... It's an opportunity to discover new talents in comedy and to meet up with well-known comedians. Moreover, the godfather of the theatre is none other than Franck Dubosc, a native of Petit-Quevilly

A true Rouen institution, the Théâtre des Deux Rives is also the headquarters of the CDN, asserts the living arts as a fundamental value of democracy and proves it with the diversity of shows offered for all audiences and, above all, with prices accessible to all. The idea? To bring people together, to be moved, to laugh, to cry together. Each season, the venue hosts contemporary foreign, French and Norman creations. Some shows are produced by the Théâtre du Nord, the CDN of Lille - Tourcoing. Not to be missed.
