Marie-Antoinette was responsible for this hall. Built in 1781, it hosted lyrical performances until 1794. After a few years of neglect, it was reborn as the Théâtre de la Porte-Saint-Martin. Romantic dramas, notably by Dumas and Hugo, were performed here. The theatre burned down during the Paris Commune and was rebuilt in 1873. Cyrano de Bergerac and Chanteclerc were created here. The alternation between classical and contemporary music keeps the place beating.

For a long time, the Parisians had this theatre of nine hundred and ninety places under the name of Eldorado. It is also known as a first room built here in 1858. It is a luxury coffee shop where you can sing, dance and drink, as well as just, but where you can also watch small pieces and pantomime or dance numbers. This was created in 1868 a poem by Jean-Baptiste Clément entitled Le Temps des Des. After being put in music by Antoine Renard, we know what fate he will know. Many artists go to Eldorado as a beginner before they go back to their features: Paulus, Yvette Guilbert, Mistinguett, Mayol, Polar, Dranem, Maurice Chevalier. In 1918, establishments of the Maori'conc'type went out of fashion, so Eldorado went to Music Hall. There are magazines, as well as vaudevilles and operettas. A Yiddish theatre will then implement it before the room is demolished, then rebuilt in 1933 to become a cinema of two thousand places. The room will keep its aesthetics 1930. In 1971, Eldorado returned to the Live Show. In 1994, Maurice Molina, the new boss of the sites, began a renovation of the site. It was the Rebaptisera theatre in 2000.

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.
