Concert halls Versailles

Before being a film complex (the largest in the city) of 8 well-equipped and comfortable rooms, where the main films are distributed, the Cyrano was the concert hall where the artists took the first stage of their dates at the Olympia. Here, in 1964, the "English Stars", who shared the poster with Trini Lopez and Sylvie Vartan, played for the very first time in France. In this way, some 1 367 people (out of 2 000 seats) were privileged to attend the "general rehearsal" of the Beatles…

Fans can enjoy their happiness in the Roxane rooms. This mythical theatre of the city is a beautiful part of past masterpieces, foreign films, the latest art and trial films. Especially as films, most often in original subtitled, are often followed by a debate and/or a meeting (with directors, critics, or associations) taking advantage of a given theme.

Inaugurated on November 18, 1777 in the presence of Louis XVI and Marie-Antoinette, under the leadership of his "godmother", Marguerite Brunet, who became "Miss de Montansier", the theatre is above all the culmination of the latter. Ambitious ambitious and Parisian galante, she led both a career as an actress and director of the troops in the province, before obtaining, in 1768, the privilege of the performances of Versailles, then of the Court, and thus the construction of "his" place of expression, rival of the Royal Opera. The architecture of the theatre was entrusted to Jean-François Heurtier and the paintings to Pierre-Louis Bocquet: it created a fashionable decor (a round room all of gold, white and blue, with its sculpted balconies, its superb ceiling and its lustre, but also, in the building, painted marbles), restored in 1993. Today, since June 2013, Geneviève Dichamp and Frédéric Franck have taken over the leadership of the Montansier Theatre and defend their willingness to co-exist private theatre and public theatre, creation and dissemination.

The Royale Factory is both a café-theatre and a café-concert. It is a very popular venue for the Versaillais, who come here to enjoy an eclectic and quality programming. Here you will discover carefully sourced local artists who perform in plays, one-man shows, improvisation, music, comedy or specially created for children. We promise to spend moments full of laughter, emotion and lightness. The little plus of the place is that you can have a meal or a drink before the shows.
