A friend gave me her seat to go listen to RIOPY. I knew I was entitled to a jump seat. How can this performance hall still charge such prices to listen to or see a show in such conditions! This is a scandal. Even the seats of the old RER trains.... are more comfortable. And what about the folding seat at €29, it's a wooden board without a backrest and luckily it was at the level of a step, so I was able to move around so as not to be stuck to my neighbor! who himself was cramped in his seat, his knees drawn up and who did not dare take off his coat not knowing what to do with it given the space... ok there are changing rooms.
So talking about the RIOPY concert, I admit that ultimately I was not able to be transported by his recital and his interventions to “liven up”!!
I don't like to criticize for the sake of criticizing, but frankly it's really disrespectful or even "making fun of" the spectators who travel, pay for their place to offer seats that are so uncomfortable in every way; space, comfort

The illusionist: Kevin James the inventor!!! It's a joke!
The guy brings in a person deprived of his lower limbs as a person cut in two and takes him off stage to replace him with another person who has his legs, if that's an invention!!!! frankly it’s shameful!

We came to this beautiful room to watch Laura Laune's show, exceptional in both laughter and emotion.
This review is just intended to reflect the welcome given by the room staff, considerate and very attentive to us, people with disabilities. Priority access, support to the place, orientation to places adapted to our disability. A human warmth that delighted us.
A downside on the comfort of the seats (chairs a little hard). Thanks to these people.

I showed up early and the doors were locked. So I called them and no one spoke English. I am not fluent in French, so that's not their issue. Fine. However, the man on the phone did plainly say that I needed to come back on Monday. My ticket was for Sunday and I told him this. Yet he insisted. I verified the date with my translator app AND with a nice old man I met at the Cafe across the street who spoke a little English. So...I waited. And I'm glad I did because, apparently, the French don't do 'early', they prefer 'on time.' Suddenly, everyone showed up and the doors were unlocked for us. Also, the tour is entirely in French so be prepared. If you do not understand fast speaking French, at least you'll get to see the historic theater, which looks like hasn't had a single thing changed in it since it was first opened. Ripped, tattered and dirty seats/chairs, carpet so dirty it looked glazed, and the ceiling is being held up by some metal apparatus. It's definitely a blast from the past.

The concert was canceled in April and now it's June and I am still waiting for my refund. When I contacted them again, they asked for patience!! A month and half of waiting and still no refund! Never buy tickets from them directly unless you pay by a credit card that covers situations like this.

A true deception. You’ll find a theatre in decay. Once a glorious building -probably- but now an unattractive ruin, held together with ducktape and emergency carpentry. Unpleasant, poor, inhospitable. The interior decorations are plastic and fake. Low budget solutions to cover up for the degrading reality of mismanagement and wrong choices. Worn out chairs in the theatre, cracks in the walls and dirty toilets. I wonder why artists pick this theatre to perform. Their arts are most likely the only positive thing on this building. Not a place to visit.

Historic theater since 1869, born at the time of the Belle Epoque. The greatest artists have graced the stage, including Maurice Chevalier, Jean Gabin, Josephine Baker, Mistinguett, and others. The foyer is very beautiful. The famous painting by Manet is very well known. The Woman at the bar. Not to be missed if you come to Paris.

Carré Or reservation for 2 places and very unpleasant surprise when arriving. Seats separated by the central aisle and torn backrests.
Such “I don’t care” is unworthy of a once renowned venue which today makes fun of its customers.
Next time we will go to the provinces but never again the Follies Bergère

The fantasma circus show: a madness with shepherd follies! Magnificent place certainly in “its own juice” but truly beautiful; Huge place compared to many Parisian theaters, very good visibility, great acoustics.
And then this show…. To see again without hesitation! It comes back in summer 2024; don’t hesitate to go there it’s surprising

We left at half time this was so bad, first time we have ever done this, and I have sat through some real rubbish!
Firstly we paid 59 euros for seats which had a restricted view and this wasn’t noted in the booking process. There are four ticket prices and these were second cheapest. Highest 110 euros... that really is a joke.
Then we were subjected to a half-arsed show of a standard you’d get at a holiday camp. This is a show worth about 20 euros max. The staging is cheap, the production value is low. The profit levels must be through the roof!
JPG should be ashamed ripping off his fans like this. Not like he needs more money....
Really bad. Do not go. Unless you are a devoted fan of JPG and are happy to put up with the rubbish standard and to fill his pockets.
