The Théâtre du Vaudeville, designed by architect Auguste Magne, was once a celebrated cultural venue in Paris. However, its grandeur was altered in 1925 when the building was transformed into a cinema, marking the end of its theatrical legacy.

Two years later, the Paramount Theater opened on the same site, boasting an impressive 1,900 seats and embracing the burgeoning film industry. Today, it is known as the Gaumont Opéra. While its function has evolved, the interior remains a striking example of art deco design, blending elegance with the vibrant spirit of the era.
