History and Visit the Odeon Theatre in Paris
Opened in 1782 and able to accommodate around 800 people, the Odeon Theatre is situated in Paris, within the 6th arrondissement. Over the years, the theatre has been known by many names, but today it stands as a national theatre and is listed among the historical monuments of France. Its neoclassical form and Italian-inspired structure are evident, with the stage designed as a cube and the auditorium in a semicircle. It was designated a National Theatre in September 1971, having been declared a historic monument on 7 October 1947, thirty years prior. The concept of constructing a French theatre was conceived by three architects: the Marquis de Mirigny, Marie-Joseph Peyre, and Charles de Wailly. The proposal was submitted in 1767 and approved on 26 March 1770 by the government, which authorized its construction on the garden grounds of the Hotel Prince de Conde. The prince had vacated these grounds after deciding to reside at the Palais Bourbon. At that time, the competition was fierce, with everyone anticipating state approval of the project. Besides, there were other architectural proposals awaiting approval, including those from Jean Claude Liégeons and Damun, who also received support from French actors of the era. Ultimately, with backing from the CEO of Royal Buildings, Peyre and Wailly emerged victorious. Their project not only had the support of the director of the royal buildings but also the backing of the king’s brother. Consequently, the theater’s design slightly mirrored that of the Luxembourg Palace, the residence of the king’s brother. Faced with their defeat, French Comedians started to protest. The state’s solution was to threaten the actors with replacement and the removal of all their privileges if they did not relent. Construction began nine years later, with Peyre tasked with the exterior decoration and Wailly focusing on the interior. Peyre’s selection was somewhat surprising given the building’s rather somber exterior appearance. It was then that the Odeon theatre became the first to feature an audience section or orchestra. Inside, white benches were installed for the public to use during performances. However, these changes were not universally welcomed, and criticism mounted. On February 16, 1782, the actors returned to their new boxes, and the inauguration took place on April 9, 1782, under the patronage of Queen Marie-Antoinette. After a fire in 1818, the theatre was rebuilt by architect Chalgrin. The Odeon Theatre remains an exceptional monument of its kind.
