About halfway between Angoulême's city hall and the statue seen in yesterday's post (more about that later) is the Théâtre d'Angoulême, built in the late nineteenth century. Its main theater has a capacity of 730; two smaller performance spaces in the building accommodate 150 and 60 people.

I see on the radar this morning that the rain we're expecting is heading up from the southwest, the standard pattern for weather systems here. I'm going to try to get the dog walked and some firewood brought in before it gets here. It'll be close. The sun doesn't come up until 08h24 today, but it will be light enough to walk in the half-hour before then.
What a spectacular building. And so very French.
ReplyDeleteThat must be the rain we had late yesterday. A slow soaker here.
I hope you made it :)
