Its walls have echoed the voices of Pauline Julien, Félix Leclerc and Diane Dufresne. Within its walls, the unforgettable Heptade concert by Harmonium played 10 consecutive evenings. And still resonating in the venerable Outremont Theatre you can discern the spirit of the music of Piché, Seguin and Beau Dommage, among so many others who played here during the theatre's heyday in the 70s. A springboard for numerous singing talents and a popular repertory film house in the 70s and 80s, the Outremont Theatre bore witness to cinema's golden age. One of the city's most beautiful buildings, it was inaugurated in 1929.

Some believed that a chapter of Montréal's cultural history had come to a close when the illustrious theatre shut its doors in the late 80s. They didn't take into account the aspirations and contagious enthusiasm of a number of individuals who wanted to see it come back to life. As a result, beginning in 1993, the city of Outremont took the gamble to proceed with rebuilding, necessary since the theatre had fallen into disarray. The bet paid off. Congratulations are in order.

Fans of Québec's music scene, along with the curious and nostalgic, have seen the proof since the theatre's official re-opening, March 20, 2001 . A larger stage area, terraced seating, and a more spacious lobby are some of the numerous improvements that provide for additional comfort and renewal. Today once more, the Outremont Theatre is dedicated to song, music, comedy, theatre and film, as well as finding a new vocation for all manner of business meetings and conferences.
