Overview

Paris has a rich theatrical history, a tapestry of iconic characters from plays and novels that have inspired theatrical adaptations known across the world.

Come with me to Unmask Paris and discover the locations and anecdotes behind some of the most unforgettable stories to have ever emerged from the City of Lights.

This tour takes you from the iconic Moulin Rouge down by the Place du Chatelet in the historic Marais district, covering some of the most iconic characters from literature and musicals as well as a few of our beautiful theatres and their history.

You'll hear about the absurd play that inspired the surrealists, America's favorite fighting Frenchman, some strange occurrences in the Palais Garnier and a relentless Police Inspector's last sighting and more!

What's included

  • Discover our “sentinelles” - unique thematic boxes that light up to illustrate some of our stops!

What to expect

  1. Moulin Rouge
    Pass by
    Our first stop is at the bottom of Montmartre. You’ll hear about the history of this iconic district, the no less iconic Moulin rouge, the cultural revolution it represented and that inspired Baz Luhrmann’s film and the subsequent musical. My Pitch Song, if you will!
  2. Theatre de Mogador
    Pass by
    The Theatre Mogador is undoubtedly the closest Parisian theatre to a West End or Broadway venue. You’ll hear why, as well as about its unique history and links to both England and America.
  3. Galeries Lafayette Paris Haussmann
    Pass by
    “Lafayette!”
  4. Palais Garnier
    Pass by
    We’ll head down the beautiful Avenue de l’Opera, where you’ll hear about its history and the rumors that inspired a story known around the world. The Point of No Return - only sans the threat!
  5. La Comedie Francaise
    Pass by
    Discover France’s most prestigious theatre company, our very own RSC!
  6. Place du Chatelet
    Pass by
    Our penultimate stop takes us by two of Paris’ largest theatres, one of which is dedicated to musicals! More on that, France’s most famous actrice, and a relentless character’s final written words. "Who is this man-"?
  7. Pont Notre Dame
    Pass by
    Our character meets a tragic end, and our tour a happier one. I leave you with one of this city’s most beautiful landscapes, and hopefully some cheerful memories! "So long, Farewell."
