Elite St Tropez Escorts

This beautiful town on the French Riviera has more than beaches, sights and the chance of spotting a film star to recommend it. It has a few theatrical venues as well, offering more in the way of live music and performance than traditional theatre.

The Theatre in the Citadel
St Tropez’s impressive Citadel, built between 1590 and 1607, is perhaps the defining feature of the resort. Aside from the various museums in the fortress there is a theatre that stages live jazz and classical music but only during July and August of each year.

The Renaissance Cinema, Place des Lices, 8399083990, Saint-Tropez,
Aside from showing contemporary movies and hosting international film festivals, The Renaissance Cinema is the number one venue for musical performance. It holds a world-respected annual Piano Festival in November of each year. In 2007 such luminaries as Elsa Cassac, Anne Queffélec and Philippe Bianconi made much-lauded appearances.

Theatre de Verdure, 1 rue Victor Leon, 83350 Ramatuelle
In nearby Ramatuelle, the small but perfectly-formed Theatre de Verdure (Theatre of the Greens) offers first-class jazz from the likes of Aldo Romano, Lee Konitz and Jacques Vidal. Other events include a variety show and a traditional music festival. The in-house acting company is Compagnie de Tragos. The Theatre de Verdure is certainly somewhere to relax after a long day of sight-seeing.

Theatre de Eucalyptus, 80, rue des Maures, 83240 Cavalaire, tel: +(33) 0609891447
If you fancy some comedy then this is the place for you, featuring comediennes such as Beatrice Guerrero. The theatre also trains acting students and opens all year round.

Other Events
Many luxury hotels and restaurants also host musical and theatrical events, so it’s a good idea to ask your hotel for the latest listings. There are also a number of ad hoc street performers and buskers that you might spot especially during the festival seasons. You often won’t be able to plan in advance to see these artistes, they will just set up at various points throughout St Tropez.

Small but Happening
All in all, there is a small but happening theatre scene going on in the city of St Tropez, even if the public image of it is as a hedonistic and beach-oriented place. Thus, a visitor to St Tropez can enjoy a varied tourist experience.
