The Largest Theatre in Paris

By Linda Tancs

Grand Rex is the largest theatre in Paris and one of the largest in Europe.  Boasting the city’s largest screen, the cinema’s outsized lines and Art Deco-style dome are out of sync with the hotels, bars and pubs along rue Poissonniere but nevertheless befitting a shrine to Parisian cinema.  Inaugurated in 1932, the Ministry of Culture has decreed it a national monument.  Discover its legend through an interactive, 50- minute long audio guided tour.
