Since its creation in 1994 by Bettina Vielhaber (a 1993 graduate of ESNAM), Compagnie de l'Echelle has presented puppet shows for a wide variety of audiences. And for each creation, she calls on artists in all fields: directors, actors, musicians, dancers, writers, video operators, set designers, etc. After meeting Alain Richet known as Nino from Les Ateliers Denino, the Company also began performing on the street. 

Bettina entrusts Les Ateliers Denino with the construction of the sets and sets of the shows, which give the company a very specific image: the subjects of the shows are inspired by life issues and suggest, with great poetry and love, another look at the world.

Le Grand Théâtre Mécanique Denino is a true miniature theater. A whole world in motion, masks, street performers, stores and of course the show, all in one box.

It was in 1900 that the brightest jewel of the Ateliers Denino saw the day. An authentic miniature Italian-style theater with its 710 seats, 80 private viewing boxes, its galleries, its baignoires, its proscenium, its royal suite, its giant dome and its 1,200-piece chandelier, made entirely of crystal. 

For four generations, it provided entertainment for the crowned heads of Europe as well as the smallest of the country fairs, and then one day, it sunk into oblivion. And so it is with great pleasure, Ladies and Gentlemen, that the last heir to the Ateliers Denino proudly announces that the Great Mechanical Theater is back again.

There will be a concert this evening, or perhaps a play by Feydeau or Prévert or something by one of those free-thinkers, maybe even a revolutionary, whatever, because it is one-of-a-kind, and even if the house is full, there will always be 10 seats left for you at each show. So come along with us and feast your eyes upon the magic of a marvelous miniature world!
