Théâtre de Carouge
Since its creation in 1958, the Théâtre de Carouge has played a social and cultural role. Through this refurbishment, it becomes an even more efficient tool to serve drama and dance productions, to keep up with innovation, and to revisit classic texts while maintaining theatre accessible to all.
