From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The National Theatre School of Canada is a private college located in Montreal, Quebec. It occupies the historic landmark, the Monument National, on Saint Lawrence Boulevard as well as a building in The Plateau district, at the corner of Saint Denis Street and Laurier Street.
The school was founded in 1960 by director Michel St. Denis, who also co-founded Julliard and taught at The Old Vic. It offers professional training in all the major theatre arts in both English and French, making it one of the only co-lingual theatre schools in the world. The progarms include Acting, Directing, Production, Playwrighting and Scenography.
