Theatre de France

Theatre de France

...First of all, the Moscow Art Theatre was founded in 1918, the year after the revolution, out of a desire for innovation and a real, genuine response that only theater could provide, in opposition to the prevailing trends in the theater world at the end of the 19th century, which had become stale, commercial, and showy.This was in line with the contemporary German Theater Meiningen and the Free Theater movement in France and other countries. Next, referring to the aforementioned movement towards innovation, for example, the former Odéon (Luxembourg Theatre), which became the second theatre of the Comédie-Française, was later called the Théâtre de France, and for a time (1958-68) was entrusted to the Renaud-Barraud Company by JL Barraud and M. Renaud, under the auspices of Minister of Culture A. Malraux. During that time, it was noted for its new staging of classics and for the performance of works by P. Claudel, J. Genet, S. Beckett, E. Ionesco, and others. Another very innovative and unique example would be the activities of the aforementioned Parisian TNP. Founded in 1920, its first director was the actor and director F. Gémier.
