Revenue model

1. Public subsidies and institutional funding: The theater receives ongoing support from multiple public institutions: DRAC Île-de-France – Ministère de la Culture, Ville de Sartrouville, Conseil départementale des Yvelines, and Région Île-de-France. This constitutes the primary revenue base as a CDN.
2. Ticket sales and subscriptions: Revenue from individual performance tickets, season subscriptions (abonnements), school performances, and workshop registrations. Online ticketing through dedicated platform.
3. Mécénat (Corporate patronage): The theater actively solicits corporate patronage/sponsorship through its 'Devenez mecène' program, offering donors recognition and benefits in exchange for financial support.
4. Pass Culture: Integration with France's Pass Culture program, allowing young audiences (primarily 18-year-olds) to use government cultural credits for ticket purchases.
