CAA Theatre, Theatre and movie theater in downtown Toronto, Canada.
The CAA Theatre is a performance venue on Yonge Street in downtown Toronto, used for live theatre, concerts, and film screenings. The auditorium is arranged over two levels, with seating for around 700 people.
The building opened as a cinema called the Victory Theatre in 1919, though the structure itself dates to 1911. Over the following decades it changed names and owners several times before being converted into a live performance venue.
The space hosts live theatre productions, concerts, and film screenings that draw audiences from across the city. These performances reflect the diverse interests of Toronto's arts community.
The theatre sits on Yonge Street and is easy to reach on foot from Dundas or Queen subway stations. The main floor entrance is wheelchair accessible, and infrared listening systems are available for guests with hearing difficulties.
A planned high-rise development intends to keep the original 1911 facade standing as part of the new building, wrapping a tower around it. This kind of facade retention is rare in Toronto and has drawn attention from people interested in the city's architectural future.
