Théâtre Royal des Galeries


The Théâtre royal des Galeries is a theater in Brussels subsidized by the French Community of Belgium , located in the Saint-Hubert Royal Galleries. It opened in 1847 and has continuously hosted theatrical activities ever since.

Performances

Since 1953, it has been possible to attend performances there of the Compagnie des Galeries, which was founded by Jean-Pierre Rey and is subsidized by the French Community of Belgium. The repertoire includes Boulevard theatre and plays by Belgian dramatists, from serious drama to comedy. Furthermore, the company performs an end-of-year satirical Revue.
Thanks to its rich repertoire, this theatre's actors have become known beyond Brussels - especially with the play Le Mariage de Mademoiselle Beulemans, which was recorded and broadcast in 1978 by the RTBF. Iconic actors such as Christiane Lenain, Jacques Lippe and Ania Guedroitz took part in that performance, which was broadcast in Belgium and abroad.
The company is currently directed by David Michels. In 2013, its grant amounted to €842,976.
