Théâtre de Quat'Sous

The Théâtre de Quat'Sous is a performing arts venue located on Pine Avenue in Le Plateau-Mont-Royal with a modern interior layout. The space includes a 114-seat auditorium and separate areas designed for rehearsals and technical operations.

The venue was founded in 1955 by Paul Buissonneau as a space for theatrical innovation. In 1973 it hosted the premiere of 'Hosanna', a pivotal moment that established its significance in Canadian theatre.

The venue actively supports experimental theatre and emerging performers, playing an important role in Montreal's contemporary performing arts scene. Through ongoing partnerships with other cultural organizations, it helps shape the city's theatrical landscape.

The venue is wheelchair accessible and centrally located in the neighborhood. Ticket sales open online roughly two weeks before each performance, giving visitors time to plan their visit.

The name 'Quat'Sous' comes from a Quebec French phrase meaning small change, reflecting the theatre's philosophy. This choice of name reveals the house's commitment to keeping performances within reach for everyday audiences.
