Bourse

*Le Bourse from Verforet. Not one for bright or busy places. However, really love ma petit Vivi, and always keeps a safe distance to watch over her.*

## Trivia

* Bourse' birthday is the opening date of the Bourse Métro in 1904.
* Bourse's obsession towards Vivienne is a reference to the proximity of her counterpart Bourse Métro being closer to Galerie Vivienne than Vivienne's counterpart - Quartre-Septembre Métro. The latter station is also directly next to Bourse Métro.
* Bourse's puppetry and theatrics theme is a reference to the former Salle de la Bourse. The theatre was torn down in 1869.
* Bourse's hairclip design is a reference to the pillars of Euronext Paris (formerly known as the Paris Bourse). It is France's securities market, and is Europe's second-largest stock exchange market, behind the London Stock Exchange. Euronext Paris is located beside Bourse Métro.
* The bow's design in [Love Chaser] and [Bourse Theater Grand Opening☆] is a reference to the street lights located in front of the entrance of Bourse Métro and Euronext Paris.

Bourse is a station on Paris Métro Line 3, located in the 2nd arrondissement of Paris, located under the axis of the Rue Quatre-Septembre and Réaumur, right next to Place de la Bourse. Oriented approximately along an east–west axis, it is located between Quatre-Septembre and Sentier stations.

Bourse Métro opened on 19 October 1904 as part of the first section of the line opened between Père Lachaise and Villiers. It is named after the nearby Bourse de Paris (stock exchange) of which it provides a service, and at the center of which is built the Palais Brongniart, then known as the Palais de la Bourse because it housed the Paris Stock Exchange at the time. The latter sat there from 1828 to 1998 before being integrated into Euronext.

Bourse is a standard configuration station. It has two platforms separated by the metro tracks and the vault is elliptical. The decoration is that of the style used for most metro stations. The lighting canopies are white and rounded in the Gaudin style du renouveau du métro des années 2000 renovation, and the bevelled white ceramic tiles cover the walls, the vault, the tympans and the outlets of the corridors. The advertising frames are in white ceramic and the name of the station is written in Parisine font on enameled plates. The seats are in the Akiko style in cyan color. As part of the RATP's Metro Renewal program, the station's corridors were renovated on 11 July 2003, then the turn of the platforms in 2008. Wikipedia

The Salle de la Bourse was a Parisian theatre located on the rue Vivienne in the 2nd arrondissement, across from the Paris Bourse, hence the name. It was successively the home of the Théâtre des Nouveautés (1827–1832), the Opéra-Comique (1832–1840), and the Théâtre du Vaudeville (1840–1869). The theatre was demolished in 1869.

The Salle de la Bourse was built to the designs of the French architect François Debret for the first Théâtre des Nouveautés, which opened there on 1 March 1827. The founder was Cyprien Bérard, a former director of the Théâtre du Vaudeville. The programs consisted of ballads, opéras comiques (Hector Berlioz was a chorister there for a few months), satires and political plays. However, for other reasons Bérard was forced to close his theatre on 15 February 1832. The Salle de la Bourse was later used by the Opéra-Comique, then the Théâtre du Vaudeville until 1869, when that company moved into a new theatre on the Boulevard des Capucines. The Salle de la Bourse was closed and immediately demolished.Wikipedia
