Les Théâtrales de Cabourg
Solidarity theater festival for Pour un Sourire d'Enfant
About Les Théâtrales
A solidarity theater festival
Created in 2022 by Béatrice and Sébastien Biessy in partnership with the town of Cabourg, Les Théâtrales de Cabourg is a unique theater festival: each show presented is performed free of charge by the artists, who agree to perform voluntarily for the benefit of the association Pour un Sourire d'Enfant (PSE). Founded in 1996 by Christian and Marie-France des Pallières, PSE supports the education of over 6,000 disadvantaged children in Cambodia.
The best of French theater
Each year, the festival programs four shows carefully selected from major Parisian hits and selections from the Avignon Off Festival, acclaimed by critics and recognized by professionals. The performances take place at La Sall'In, the performance hall of the Grand Hôtel de Cabourg, offering an intimate and elegant setting.
100% volunteer commitment
Les Théâtrales is entirely organized by volunteers. Artists are hosted by local residents and fed by Cabourg merchants, to maximize the funds raised. From its first edition in 2022, the festival welcomed over 600 spectators and funded 5,200 professional training days for the children supported by PSE. The festival has since continued to break attendance and fundraising records.
