Publication of the first title in the “Performance Venues” collection dedicated to Théâtre Marigny

Committed to raising awareness of the architectural heritage linked to live performance, Clé Millet has produced and published a first monograph devoted to one of its Parisian temples. This work presents an original approach combining technical and artistic commentary with a historical thread.

Largely based on the preparatory research preceding each of our interventions on exceptional sites, this work synthesises the entire adventure of a site without omitting the compilation of the works performed, that of the authors, that of the principal artists, while contextualising this information through the political, artistic and social events of the time.

Richly illustrated, it aims to retrace its genesis by explaining and detailing the interactions that shaped it.

This first volume, written by Stéphane Millet and Pascale Gransard, draws extensively on iconographic sources resulting from the collective work of all our teams. It was designed by Sylvain Enguehard and foreshadows, as a reference model, the forthcoming publications, among which the Théâtre Blossac in Châtellerault and the Folies Bergère already feature prominently.

During an evening held in the Ozenfant studio, an early work by Le Corbusier, a signing session brought together many figures from the worlds of heritage and performance.
