The Baraka

THE BARAKA

La Baraka is the temporary home of the theatre, restaurant, bar, bookshop, coworking space with wi-fi, around the shows, space for debates, meetings and parties.

The Baraka

A temporary place of conviviality during the works of the theater, La Baraka is the focus of the theater. It is transformed over the course of the day and the weeks: a restaurant offering a dish of the day and salads for lunch, a quiet and friendly café in the afternoon with a terrace, lounge area, coworking area and free wi-fi to come and read or work in peace, it becomes a hive of activity in the evening, with the artists and Vidy's teams. Upstairs, the offices welcome the theatre's teams during the construction period.
