Description

La Maison Théâtre is the place par excellence for theater for young audiences in Montreal. It welcomes young people from 12 months to 17 years old and their families, as well as numerous school and preschool groups. Its room is specially designed for the needs of children and adolescents. In addition, the place offers a rest room equipped with dynamic sensory positioning cushions, weighted blankets, shells, heavy comforting stuffed animals, for people needing a calm place. Heavy plush toys and shells are also available in the broadcast room. A space with tents and obstacles is also made available to people with excess energy to expend during the performances. People in wheelchairs with seats at the back of the theater must go through the access in the Cégep du Vieux Montréal. While people with seats at the front of the theater go through the main entrance
