Ardor Theatre Company

What do we do?

Ardor Theatre Company is an association that aims to make international, positive and humanist theatre, cinema and events. Ardor literally means “the inner light”, we would like to represent and support people whose voice is often unheard. We work with actors from all around the world and we support other associations that work directly with communities that we represent. Ardor was funded in 2021 by Olympe, Elodie and Angélique and has done four shows so far representing women, refugees, women survivors of sexual violence (The Vagina Monologues, Home, The Voice of Refugees, Our resilience – surviving sexual violence).
