HIGHLIGHTS: Tiaen tiamen (Episode 1) by Bulareyaung Dance Company

It's a theatre that few visitors to Paris know about, yet it is located at the most visited spot in Paris. Its entrance is to the left of the Trocadero esplanade, looking up at the aptly named Iron Lady: the Eiffel Tower.
You enter through a heavy wrought-iron glass door. Once through the door, you climb a monumental staircase that leads you to the colonnaded Grand Foyer.

Here, prepare your eyes... The most beautiful view of Paris awaits you.

The huge glass walls of the Grand Foyer look directly out onto the gardens and fountains of the Trocadéro... and the greatest attraction in Paris: the Eiffel Tower.
The effect is spectacular, especially when the great Iron Lady shines with a thousand lights, filling the Grand Foyer with countless sparkling rays.

Chaillot - Théâtre national de la Danse is not only one of the best-located theatres in Paris, but also offers an incredible programme of dance: its purpose is to bring dance to a wide audience for them to discover and appreciate. The greatest French, European and international choreographers present their recent creations here.
