Une ancienne usine hydraulique désaffectée et transformée en salle de spectacles. Au-delà de la programmation culturelle, bien sentie, le lieu est magique et mérite le détour. Certains diront que les sièges ne sont pas des plus confortables et ça se discute, mais l'espace est bien conçu, je pense notamment à la dénivellation qui permet d'avoir une vue sur la scène sans entrave visuelle.
