Paris’ theatres have joined forces to collectively declare “My place is in the performance halls” by changing the names of their shows to Ma Place Est Dans La Salle in a show of inspirational solidarity.
The incredible one-day movement will see actors, technicians, venue managers, producers, ticket venders and everyone involved in all sectors of the performing arts in France’s capital city band together to spread the message of the power of the arts and freedom of expression.
