Events - Meaux Théâtre Luxembourg : An Ambitious 2026–2027 Season Featuring Big Names and New Works

By Mulder, Meaux, Theate Luxembourg, 16 june 2026

The Théâtre Luxembourg in Meaux unveiled its 2026–2027 program this evening, and to say the least, this new season reaffirms the cultural ambition that the City of Meaux has been pursuing for several years. With nearly fifty shows and sixty performances, the theater intends to continue its mission of promoting the performing arts in all their forms, combining theater, music, dance, comedy, programming for young audiences, and community-building events. In his editorial, Jean-François Copé, mayor of Meaux and president of the Pays de Meaux Urban Community, highlights the steady increase in attendance and the public’s attachment to this cultural offering, which has now become an integral part of the local identity. Alongside Jérôme Tisserand, deputy mayor in charge of culture, he highlights a program designed to be a space for sharing, discovery, and emotion, accessible to as many people as possible.

This season features a particularly successful balance between popular artists, acclaimed productions, and new discoveries. Audiences will be treated to major figures from the French music scene, such as Michel Jonasz, who will celebrate the fifteenth anniversary of his “Piano-Voix” project alongside Jean-Yves d’Angelo—a duo whose musical chemistry has already captivated hundreds of thousands of spectators across France. The program will also feature iconic artists such as Clovis Cornillac, Clémentine Célarié, and Gérard Darmon, reaffirming the TLM’s commitment to presenting events that appeal to a wide range of audiences while maintaining high artistic standards.

Theater naturally takes center stage in this new season. Among the highlights is Du charbon dans les veines, a play written and directed by Jean-Philippe Daguerre, which has become one of the recent theatrical sensations thanks to its haul of five awards at the 2025 Molière Awards ceremony. This work immerses audiences in the daily life of a mining town in northern France in the late 1950s and follows in the tradition of great French popular narratives that blend emotion, collective memory, and humanity. The TLM will also host more unique productions such as “Edgar Allan Poe’s Last Dream,” conceived by Cécilia Dassonneville and Zoé Basso, which revisits the world of the famous American writer through a blend of theater, dance, and music, perfectly illustrating the diversity of theatrical styles sought by the programming.

Dance will also be one of the season’s cornerstones. Right from the opening, choreographer Philippe Lafeuille—known for his hit productions Tutu and Car/Men—will present A4 (comme la feuille), a new work that brings together various choreographic styles through a playful and inventive approach to movement. The program will also feature prominent figures in contemporary dance, with the announced participation of Fauve Hautot, Kader Attou, and the prestigious Junior Ballet of the Paris National Opera, demonstrating the Théâtre Luxembourg’s ability to attract productions recognized far beyond the Seine-et-Marne region. This artistic diversity is part of a nationwide trend in which public venues are seeking to break down barriers between disciplines in order to reach new audiences.

Music will not be left out, with a particularly varied lineup ranging from blues to world music, including large orchestras and intimate concerts. Among the most anticipated events is the performance by The Official Blues Brothers Revue, an official show directly linked to the legacy of John Landis’s cult film, which over the decades has become a global benchmark in popular music culture. World music enthusiasts, meanwhile, will have the chance to discover the group Rumelaj, whose Balkan-inspired sounds bridge the musical boundaries between Macedonia, Bulgaria, and Romania. In addition, there will be numerous performances by emerging and regional artists, reflecting the TLM’s commitment to supporting artistic creation while maintaining a program open to international influences.

Comedy will also take center stage with several events featuring artists from very different backgrounds. Audiences will have the chance to see Philippe Caverivière, who has become one of the leading figures in French comedy thanks to his incisive sketches, as well as Paul de Saint Sernin, Sandrine Sarroche, Patson, Blandine Lehout, and the artists coming together as part of the Meaux Rire de Rire festival. This diversity allows the Théâtre Luxembourg to meet the public’s growing demand for comedy shows that combine popular entertainment with a critical perspective on contemporary society.

One of the most notable aspects of this season, however, remains the focus on accessibility and inclusion. The Théâtre Luxembourg continues its commitment to people with disabilities through a partnership with Pôle Art & Handicap 77, a comprehensive accessibility policy, and the introduction of a “session+” designed for audience members with specific needs. More relaxed, more flexible, and tailored to specific needs, this format illustrates a significant shift in French live performance, where accessibility issues are no longer considered secondary but rather an essential component of the cultural experience. The production “Personne n’est ensemble sauf moi” (No One Is Together Except Me), directed by Clea Petrolesi, is fully in line with this approach by giving a voice to young adults with invisible disabilities and by questioning the notions of normality and difference.

Beyond the performances themselves, the Théâtre Luxembourg also continues its community outreach through an active program of cultural initiatives. Meet-and-greets with artists, educational workshops, masterclasses, backstage tours, school projects, and participatory initiatives will punctuate the entire season. Under the leadership of Julie Merville, project manager for cultural outreach and audience relations, these initiatives help make the theater a true hub of life and knowledge-sharing. The program also draws on a vast network of local partners, including the Cité de la Musique Simone-Veil, the Bossuet Museum, the Great War Museum, the Luxembourg Media Library, and the JAM, thereby strengthening the circulation of culture throughout the region.

With its 2026–2027 season, the Théâtre Luxembourg de Meaux reaffirms its status as a major cultural driving force in Seine-et-Marne. Featuring big names in French theater, award-winning productions, artistic discoveries, a commitment to accessibility, and support for emerging talent, the program paints a picture of a venue that refuses to choose between excellence and community engagement. At a time when cultural institutions are seeking more than ever to renew their relationship with the public, the TLM seems to have found an effective formula: offering ambitious performances while retaining the human and welcoming atmosphere that has long been its hallmark.
