Our CSR commitments

A Rresponsibility Ssocial and EIn terms of environmental action, this involves a series of practical measures carried out by Ranelagh:

  • recycling - selective sorting : glass; cardboard/plastic; organic waste (compost) and general waste – that’s four bins! What’s more, with the solution provided by Conibi, we recycle the ink and toner cartridges from our printers. From September 2025, no more plastic water bottles! We’re switching to water flasks in the changing rooms and trays for the teams, as well as glass bottles with our CASTALIE water dispenser, providing filtered, chilled and sparkling water.

  • electricity Energy efficiency: a controlled resource with the switch to LED lighting for the entire stage area in September 2024 and the use of rechargeable batteries since 2018. Not forgetting the recycling of our bulbs and batteries in specially adapted bins.
  • heating  We have steam heating for the whole building, thanks to district heating.
  • air reprocessing  : Since September 2024, the hall has been benefiting from air recirculation and cooling via an air-handling unit: the air is purer, cooler and of a higher quality, and the system is more energy-efficient than a conventional air-conditioning system.

  • the foyer bar : we sell French products (wines from Bordeaux, the Loire or Châteauneuf-du-Pape) and even from Paris, which haven’t travelled round the world three times to reach the Ranelagh; we even use returnable glass bottles for almost all our drinks (water, beer, soft drinks and lemonades).

  • soft mobility The 14 members of our permanent team use bicycles and public transport.

  • paper From September 2021 onwards, hostesses will no longer be handing out programmes to spectators when they take their seats. Only the season programme, posters and flyers for each show will be printed on 70% PEFC-certified recycled paper in controlled runs, so there will be no waste.

  • the ticket office Your show tickets can be presented directly on your phone, so you don't have to print them out!
  • subtitling to ensure the inclusion of deaf and hard-of-hearing audience members : thanks to the digital system panthea.live Go, members of the audience with hearing difficulties will be able to follow the entire script live on their own smartphone by scanning a QR code at the box office. This service is free and available only on Thursdays and Fridays for the 8.45 pm performance. The technology used ensures real-time synchronisation, with no perceptible delay. The content is always streamed simultaneously and live by a single operator. The lines scroll across your screen at a moderate brightness.

We are part of the working group that created and then implemented the ecological charter for French theatres via the Association pour le Soutien du Théâtre Privé (ASTP), which means we are part of an even broader CSR commitment for our show productions (sets, costumes, scenography).
