Located in the Auch Town Hall, this 18th century Italian-style theatre is the only theatre from this period preserved in the South West.

In 1759, the intendant of Etigny proposed the construction of a new town hall. From the outset, the building was designed to house a theatre.

The room has an elongated U-shape, the branches of which diverge in a slight curve to reach the front stage. The foliage panels of the first lodges have in their center medallions representing dramatic authors (Voltaire, Shakespeare, Molière, Sophocles…).

The ceiling represents Poetry, Eloquence, Music and Painting. The theater is still used today for cultural purposes, in particular by the stage agreed Circa.

Guided tours are offered with guides from the Pays d'art et d'histoire (contact the tourist office for more information).
