The Bald Singer and The Lesson of Eugène Ionesco: already 20,000 performances at La Huchette. In the small hall of the theater in the 5th arrondissement of Paris, the two classics have been played without interruption since… 1957.

Spectators come from all over the world: Asia, the United States, England, English-speaking countries including Australia, and Eastern countries (Ionesco was born in Romania). Schoolchildren represent a third of the public. Every Wednesday, the plays are subtitled in English.
