Appointments

for a cultural trip

You have a date with the Théâtre de l’Archipel, Granville’s theatre located behind the Casino de Granville. The Casino, designed by Auguste Bluysen, was inaugurated in 1911 and already had a 400-seat theatre. L’Archipel, as we know it today, was built in 2001 as an auditorium and conference centre. Set between the cliffs and the sea, l’Archipel offers a varied cultural season from September to June, including a wide range of cultural outreach activities. From the very first moment you arrive, as you walk along the long corridor carved out of the Roc cliff, you’ll appreciate a special, hushed and unusual atmosphere. Unwittingly, you’re already preparing for the cultural journey that awaits you at the end of it.

Review

an afternoon

Today, in a small group, you’re attending an unusual show. Marie welcomes you and guides you into the room where the company is based. Here, calm reigns. You take your seats, curious and concentrated. Curtain up: the company presents its work. You put yourself in the shoes of a critic, or a director, by immersing yourself in their creation. Then the members of the company ask you what you think of the sequence. This is your chance to express your feelings and suggestions, all in a friendly atmosphere. For their part, the company members explain their core message and their sticking points. This will enable the company to fine-tune the game.

A visit

VIP

You can continue this convivial exchange over local produce in the Foyer de l’Archipel. But the immersion doesn’t stop there! Marie will now take you through the labyrinths of the Theatre to discover its nooks and crannies: Dressing rooms, stage management, backstage… This is your chance to discover another point of view from certain rooms, such as a view overlooking the sea with the sun illuminating the cliffs, revealing a palette of multiple colours… What a privilege! Afterwards, you’ll leave with the desire to come back and discover the final work, the room full of spectators, with the satisfaction of having contributed to the creative process.
