The Theatre

Centaur Theatre Company, located in the heart of Old Montréal, is devoted to telling stories on stage that expand our perceptions of the world.

We strive to be an Open Door to all the diverse communities of Montréal who seek high-quality, relevant theatrical experiences.

History

Situated among the cobblestone streets of historic Old Montreal and residing in Canada’s first stock exchange building, Centaur Theatre Company is at the centre of Montréal’s arts community.

In 2017, on the eve of the Centaur’s 50th Anniversary, the Board of Directors announced Eda Holmes as Centaur Theatre Company’s first female Artistic & Executive Director. Formerly the Associate Artistic Director at the prestigious Shaw Festival, Holmes seeks to expand on our multicultural history as a theatre and a city to make Centaur Theatre Company a hub of culture in Montréal by attracting the best local, national, and international theatre creators to connect with Centaur’s diverse audiences and tell the most relevant stories of our times.
