The gilded mother of French theatres, the Comédie Française turns out season after season of classics, as well as lofty new productions. The red velvet and gold-flecked Salle Richelieu is located right by the Palais-Royal; under the same management are the
Studio-Théâtre, a black box inside the Carrousel du Louvre, and the
Théâtre du Vieux Colombier.
