Performances
March 21-24 at 8pm

The Revolution They Wrote Festival would not be possible without the support of Le Conseil des arts de Montréal and MainLine Theatre.

Tickets can be purchased online or by telephone at 514-849-3378/in person from Tuesday through Saturday from 2pm-6pm. Please note that same day sales are by telephone and in person only.

Accessibility Information
RTW is as scent free as possible we ask all of our production staff, patrons and performers to respect this.

Regretfully, the Mainline Theatre is not wheelchair-accessible. There is a single step through a glass door into the stairwell, and then there are 25 steps (with a right hand rail) from there up to the theatre floor. There are 3 single-stall gender-neutral bathrooms on the premises, but none accommodate wheelchair-users.

Accessibility is a priority for us and we are striving towards a festival everyone can attend. Look for new wheelchair accessible and ASL + LSQ translated programming in the upcoming months.

If you wish to see a show but don't have the funds, we have volunteer opportunities!

***
Le festival est un évènement de 4 jours mettant en vedette des performances courtes et des œuvres d’art féministes. Son but est de créer un espace où des artistes féministes de tous milieux puissent se rassembler pour développer et produire des pièces courtes explorant des thèmes liés au féminisme intersectionnel.

Coming Soon

What if you entered an empty rehearsal hall and suddenly an audience appears? Joseph Ste-Marie brings his experimental scripted/improvised one-man show, This Show is Broken back to the stage! This remount blends the 2021 Digital Theatre production from the Montreal FRINGE Festival and the original 2015 production at the 2nd annual Shortstanding Festival. Ste-Marie must perform his show as he explores his life, struggles, missteps, and tries to show that it’s not too late to pursue your dreams…. However, Joseph is challenged to be honest with himself so his show can be authentic as possible without being blinded by ambition.

"Tango in fusion est une œuvre qui combine l’art du tango avec différents styles de danse. Ceux-ci permettent de visualiser par le mouvement et la dramaturgie, certains conflits socioculturels et émotionnels auxquels nous sommes tous confrontés.

Les artistes de tango in fusion s’expriment à travers d’histoires personnelles une extase de la danse du tango dans son essence. Ce qui permet aussi avec la diversité des autres types de mouvements et musique. une connexion avec le spectateur afin de visualiser et briser différents stéréotypes socioculturels."

INSIDE MADPOETIX STUDIO is revolutionizing our Soirées Intimes Series by allowing the audience to get to know the feature performer through an interview during the show live. The artist will be interviewed by our host Kym Dominique Ferguson @Mrkdferguson. This is a one of a kind experience. There will be 8 Open Mic spots available for all genres: spoken word, poetry, comedy, singers, clowns, dancers, you name it we welcome it. They are each given a 5 min timeslot.
