It was built between 1902 and 1904 by the architect Lafont. After Urbain Couchouren bequeathed an orchard to the city in 1893 to build a hospice, the city decided to build a theater there. A trial and a reckoning followed... This was the subject of Terrain Bouchaballe (1923 novel and play by Max Jacob). In 1942, Gaston, Max's brother, was arrested in the theater garden (which was forbidden to Jews). He died in Auschwitz in 1943.
In 1997 the theater was renamed "Théâtre Max Jacob".

The theater garden is also worth seeing. It was created immediately after the theater was built and is shielded to the south by a historic gymnasium facing Rue Jean Jauré.
