The
Théâtre Feydeau , a former Parisian theatre company, was founded in 1789 with the patronage of Monsieur, Comte de Provence (later to become
Louis XVIII), and was therefore initially named the
Théâtre de Monsieur. It began performing in the
Salle des Tuileries, located in the north wing of the
Tuileries Palace, then moved to the Salle des Variétés at the
Foire Saint-Germain, and finally, beginning in 1791, settled into its own custom-built theatre, the Salle Feydeau located on the rue Feydeau. The company was renamed Feydeau after the royal family was arrested during the
French Revolution.
