The Theatre de la Madeleine is a theater in Paris built in the English style in 1924 on the site of a carousel. The first major success of the theatre came with the presentation of part one of The Merchants of Glory by Marcel Pagnol.

The Theatre de la Madeleine was closely associated with the French stage actor, film actor, director, screenwriter, and prolific playwright Sacha Guitry who composed 24 of his plays here between 1932 and 1940.[1]

Simone Valere and Jean Desailly were directors of the theater from 1980 until 2002. In 2003 the directors job was taken over by Frederick Frank and Stephane Lissner.
