The Quebec Drama Federation Spring Theatre Calendar Launch will take place Monday March 16th at 6pm at the intimate Geordie Space (4001 rue Berri, Montreal). Join us in seeing the coming attractions of the English-language spring theatre crop - for free admission and complimentary refreshments, discover theatre that suits your tastes. Decide what shows are must sees, might sees, and not-for-me's.
