Many, Many theatres and a wonderful opera house The Opéra House was destroyed in 1919 by a fire the only relics left are the facade and the exteror walls, the Marseillais, who love to go out, whether it be the opera, football or to eat, practically demanded  the reconstruction of their opera house and so it, was in 1924. The area around the opera house may seem a little american to you with it many American Bars, but do not be fooled, in fact these are prostitute bars and the area is the place to find ladies for a certain sum of money. The main ticket office is to be found in the Fnac Shop in the Centre Bourse Shopping Center.
To find out what's going on around town you must pick up a 'Taktik' it's a newspaper (free) that has all the dates for concerts, theatre shows and cinema, web site.
