WILDSIDE THEATRE FESTIVAL 2018 @ Centaur Theatre

WILDSIDE THEATRE FESTIVAL JAN 4-13, 2018

Start the year on the Wild Side @ Centaur Theatre. Under the curatorship of Johanna Nutter you will be introduced to "... new, cutting-edge English indie theatre in Montreal; Wildside is a celebration of deserving artists and their work, productions that wouldn’t ordinarily get this kind of mainstream exposure."

For Centaur’s Artistic and Executive Director, Eda Holmes, it will be a first: " It is so important to give our loyal audience a chance to experience the next generation of theatre artists and at the same time, introduce a new audience and groups of artists to Centaur. "
