The Théâtre Mogador at 25 rue Mogador is a very grand old classical theatre, with a long history and remains today a very prestigious Paris theatre (see pictures) Built in 1913 by London financier Sir Alfred Butt, to replicate the London music halls he had developed, the Palace Theatre as it was also called quickly became famous for Russian ballets, operettas. From 1970 the programming became more eclectic reaching its eclectic best when the Clash hit the famous stage in 1981!

Amusingly the grand theatre with three floors, columns, and a heavily decorated lobby reportedly closed for repairs for 3 years after The Clash residency!
