Paris is the cultural capital of the world, even children know this. And the names of his theaters have sounded like music to many of us since childhood, or at least teenage times. After all, we studied Molière at school and were told that his plays were staged on the stage of the Comédie Française. We read both Hugo and Dumas the Son, and every time we read the biography, we came across this magic word - Comedie Française.

So what kind of theater is this, what is its history, and how does it delight the audience today? First, a little about history. Comedie Française is the oldest theater not only in France, but throughout Europe. Judge for yourself, it has been working for more than three hundred and thirty years! And to this day it is the leading dramatic theater in Paris, one of its main attractions. It should be noted that Russian tourists especially love the theater, and this is understandable, taking into account the fact that we are a nation of true theatergoers.

The Comedy Francaise Theater was created not just anyhow, but by decree of the Sun King himself, who decided to unite two Parisian theaters of that time - the theater of the recently deceased Moliere and the Burgundy Hotel theater. The troupe included the most famous French actors of that period. The genius of Moliere forever remained invisibly present in the French theater, so that sometimes the Comedy Française is even called the “House of Moliere.” Indeed, almost all of the great playwright’s plays were staged here. Subsequently, Beaumarchais, Diderot, Racine and Voltaire took up the baton.

The Comedy Francaise Theater was created not just anyhow, but by decree of the Sun King himself, who decided to unite two Parisian theaters of that time - the theater of the recently deceased Moliere and the Burgundy Hotel theater.

Since the theater received an annual royal subsidy, which gave it the opportunity to invite the most famous actors, and also had the right to stage plays in French, it soon gained enormous popularity in France and became its largest theater.

As you know, European theaters operate mainly on the enterprise principle, but the Comedy Française is an exception; it is one of the few repertory theaters in Europe, where a wide variety of productions are staged, from ancient comedies and tragedies to the most modern plays. Directors from various countries are invited, for example, the famous Pyotr Fomenko staged Ostrovsky’s play “The Forest” on the stage of the Comedy Française, which was shown at the Chekhov festival held here in 2005. The theater management produces many foreign authors, but still most of the plays are performed in French.

How to get to the show

Theater tickets, of course, come in different price categories, depending on the seat in the theater that you want to purchase. The most expensive tickets cost about 43 EUR, and the cheapest - don't be surprised - only 9 EUR.

The oldest French theater not only in France, but throughout Europe, the Comédie-Française has been operating for more than 330 years. It is the leading dramatic theater in Paris, as well as one of the most famous attractions of the city, especially loved by Russian tourists. The Comedie Francaise Theater was created by decree of King Louis XIV seven years after the death of the famous Jean-Baptiste Molière.

In fact, in this theater, by decree of the king, two Parisian theaters that then existed in the capital of France were united. Namely, the Moliere Theater, which previously merged with the Marais Theater, and the Burgundy Hotel Theater. The troupe of the newly created theater included the then famous actors M. Chanmele, L. Bejart, C. Lagrange, M. Baron and others. Almost all the plays of the great playwright were shown at the House of Moliere, as the “Comédie Française” is sometimes called. Productions by Beaumarchais, Diderot, Voltaire and Racine were staged here.

Thanks to the unification in 1680, the theater began to receive an annual royal subsidy of 12,000 livres, and also had the opportunity to stage plays in French. Possessing a monopoly on the performance of literary drama, and receiving a subsidy that allows it to invite the best actors, the Comedy Française has gained fame as the largest theater in France.

Currently, the House of Moliere is one of the few repertory theaters in Europe, where productions are staged from antiquity to the present day. Moreover, modern authors from various countries are invited. For example, Pyotr Fomenko staged A. Ostrovsky’s play “The Forest” here, which was shown at the International Chekhov Festival in 2005. In addition to Moliere, foreign, including Russian, classics are staged here. “Comedy Français” presented “A Streetcar Named Desire”, “The Cherry Orchard”, and “Marriage” in various seasons. However, the vast majority of productions are in French. And in very good French.

Enjoy your visit to Comedie Française!

The history of French theater begins in the Middle Ages. At first these were performances on religious themes. Thanks to such great authors as Moliere, Racine, Corneille, the 17th century became the golden era of French theater.

Subsequently, the ranks of great playwrights were joined by de Beaumarchais, Victor Hugo, and Emile Zola. Today it is difficult to find a person who has not heard of outstanding French writers and playwrights such as Jean Giraudoux, Sartre, Camus, Jean Cocteau.

In the 20th century, the French government paid great attention to the preservation and development of theatrical traditions. Theaters such as the Grand Opera, Odeon, and Comédie Française are still subsidized from the country's budget.

Comédie Française during the time of Louis XIV

The French theater or Comédie Française was founded on October 24, 1680 by decree of King Louis XIV. The king, himself an excellent dancer, took part in the performances with pleasure.

Louis XIV patronized the Comedie Française theater and soon granted it the exclusive privilege of staging plays in Paris. At the same time, theater actors began to receive a substantial annual allowance. The Age of Enlightenment was truly a period of development of all genres of theater: opera and ballet, drama and comedy.

Almost all of the theater's actors previously belonged to the troupe of the brilliant playwright Jean Baptiste Molière, which is why the theater has another name firmly attached to it - “House of Molière,” despite the fact that the greatest theatergoer died before the founding of the Comedy Française.

Until the mid-18th century, the theater was inextricably linked with the royal court; theater actors had the honorary title of “ordinary actors of the king.” The French Theater or Comédie Française is gaining fame as the largest theater in France.

French theater during the French Revolution

The French theater or Comédie Française underwent changes during the years of the French Revolution; the political life of France also excited the theater troupe. The theater receives a new name "Theater of the Nation", and political intransigence in 1792 leads to a split in the theater.

Supporters of revolutionary views were united by the young actor Talm. January 1793 was marked by the premiere of the play “Friend of the Laws,” which sharply ridiculed Marat and Robespierre, this happened before the execution of Louis XVI.

The Committee of Public Safety recognizes the play as reactionary and decrees the closure of the Theater of Nations and the arrest of the actors, who were released only in 1794, after the overthrow of Robespierre.

French theater at the beginning of the 19th century

The two parts of the troupe were united only in 1799, the theater was returned to its historical name Comédie Francaise, October 3, 1812, Napoleon, who was in Moscow at that time, signed the “Moscow Decree”, which approved the Charter and structure of the theater. Subsequent decrees, adopted in 1850 and 1859, and later in 1901 and 1910, finally confirmed the privileged position of the theater.

Modern French Theater

The value of the French Theater in Paris is confirmed by the fact that today it is one of the few classical repertory theaters in France financed by the Government. Critics claim that the Théâtre Française in Paris is the only classical theater of national importance that is not afraid to experiment.

The second stage of the Comédie Française, located in the Louvre gallery, next to the Richelieu hall, is completely devoted to experimental performances.

The French Theater in Paris or the House of Moliere is often compared to the Maly Theater in Moscow or the House of Ostrovsky. These theaters are always a standard, a model, a keeper of theatrical traditions and a symbol of the country’s culture, but at the same time, they are always new and magnificent.
