Théâtre Princesse Grace unveils 34-show 2026/27 season
By Zak Jackson, MonacoViews Editorial
The Théâtre Princesse Grace has announced its 2026/27 programme, balancing established hits with discovery productions as it moves towards becoming a venue for original creation.
The Théâtre Princesse Grace is entering its next season with 34 productions and a clear shift in ambition. Director Françoise Gamerdinger has outlined a 2026/27 programme that holds to the theatre's established formula of mixing crowd-pleasing titles with less familiar work, while signalling that the Avenue d'Ostende venue is preparing to move into original creation in the years ahead.
Gamerdinger's phrase "imagining theatre differently" captures what is at stake. A national-stage model, long standard in France, would give Monaco its own production infrastructure rather than relying solely on touring companies. That would mean resident artists, commissioning budgets and productions originating in the Principality, not just passing through it.
For residents, the practical news is a full 34-show calendar to look forward to from autumn 2026. The balance between accessible programming and more challenging work has been a deliberate policy under Gamerdinger, and the new season maintains that approach while laying the groundwork for something larger. Full scheduling details and ticket information are expected through the Théâtre Princesse Grace's official channels.
