At the end of a consultation between the Ministry of Culture and Communication and the City of Paris, the occupation and management of the spaces that had hitherto been the hallmark of the Cauldron led by Marie Choisne were entrusted in April 2011 to the Atelier de Paris - Carolyn Carlson. The Théâtre du Chaudron will continue to organize residencies there four months a year.

These premises, with an area of about 1,000 m2, divided between a creative studio
330m2 and a space of more than 660m2, are part of
the entire Cartoucherie du bois de Vincennes, property of the city of Paris.

L'Atelier de Paris - Carolyn Carlson will program her choreographic activities on
six to eight months per year, and will be accompanied by a grant from the
Culture and Communication.

The Chaudron Theatre will focus its activity on the organization of residences

Cartoucherie in a building specially designed as a dance studio. L'Atelier
welcomes artists in residence and renowned choreographers of the stage
Master-classes. It organizes the annual June Festival
events.
