Thelya is the television channel and streaming platform entirely dedicated to live performance and short film — the best of the French-speaking stage. Classic and contemporary theatre, solo shows, musicals, opera, circus, shows for young audiences, festivals, short films of every genre, documentaries and original programmes: filmed with care and broadcast 24/7 — live, in catch-up and on demand. Our conviction: a show should never disappear after its final curtain call. Every work broadcast on Thelya becomes a living archive, and every play, artist, company and venue has its own page on TheatreDB, our reference database of the performing arts. In a word: the great stage, in your home, and for good.
Thelya is available in seven countries from launch: France, Belgium, Switzerland, Luxembourg, Canada, Andorra and Monaco. More territories and languages will follow.
