Opened on 24 December 1929 for Christmas Eve, the Comédie de Paris Cabaret was built and decorated by the architect Pingusson at the foot of Montmartre Hill.
Since 2008, the Comédie de Paris has been directed by Jean-Pierre Bigard (also director of the Palais des Glaces), and offers a varied programme completely dedicated to humour, where new talents stand side by side for laughs and quality comedies.
