Paris has a rich theatrical history, a tapestry of iconic characters from plays and novels that have inspired adaptations known across the world.
Come with me to Unmask Paris and discover the locations and anecdotes behind some of the most unforgettable stories to have ever emerged from the City of Lights.
Unmask Paris




Our main tour takes you from the iconic Moulin Rouge down to the Place du Châtelet in the historic Marais district. You'll hear about the absurdist play that inspired the surrealists, America's favourite fighting Frenchman, some strange occurrences in the Palais Garnier and a relentless Police Inspector's last sighting... and more!








Discover our unique "sentinelles" boxes, luminous tributes to the locations and characters mentioned on our tours developed by working with artists as well as local businesses.

Who am I?
Hi there, my name is Jonathan Hendry and I'll be your guide on this tour. I grew up here in Paris, where my early passion for theatre and interest in the great characters of French literatures was soon echoed and amplified with the discovery of musical theatre and the West End's take on the stories I grew up with.
Being Franco-British and bilingual, I have always been fasinated by the bridges theatre can and has built between cultures. This was only reinforced by drama studies in the UK, after which I came back to Paris with a strong desire to share my love for both this city and its literary/theatrical heritage.
