The Midsummer
Soirée
A Gala Supporting New Theatre
JUNE 20, 2026
RIBEROLLE STUDIOS,
To celebrate three years of Alchemy Theatre, we invite you to our Midsummer Soirée, an evening to bring together friends, artists and supporters - old and new, in a secret corner of eastern Paris.
Merely steps from the famous Père-Lachaise Cemetery, Riberolle Studios is a bohemian former factory, located in a cobbled cul-de-sac dating from the Napoleonic era. Furnished with a secret password, party guests will be welcomed into this quiet, unspoilt lane that seems to exist outside of time.
The festivities will include performances from drag star Blanche Poubelle, a comedy set from the wickedly talented Sophie Koreto, as well as a silent auction on a range of experiences, unique items and more. The night will end with a DJ set from Monstera Sound superstars, Jo & Sören.
Additionally, the evening will see the launch of the Friends Of Alchemy scheme, which has been designed to support Alchemy in continuing to make theatre, both in France and internationally.
You are invited to dress to our (optional) midsummer theme - think warm summer tones, florals and bright colours. This is the perfect excuse to wear that flamboyant outfit that you have been saving for a special event.
Come along to kick off the summer, celebrate theatre and network with fellow creatives and those who simply love the arts.
Doors open at 17:00, entertainment kicks off at 18:00, and the curtain will come down at 23:00.
