Description
LE RIDEAU VERT
Fondé en 1949 par Yvette Brind'Amour et Mercedes Palomino, le Théâtre du Rideau Vert est le premier théâtre professionnel francophone au pays. Il fut également l'un des premiers théâtre québécois à investir dans la création d'œuvres « d'ici », favorisant l'éclosion du théâtre de Félix Leclerc, Marie-Claire Blais, Gratien Gélinas, Michel Tremblay, Antonine Maillet, etc. C'est d'ailleurs là que fut créée la pièce Les Belles-Sœurs de Michel Tremblay en joual en 1968.
Après avoir œuvré dans diverses salles (Compagnons de Saint-Laurent, Monument-National, Gesù, l'Anjou), le Théâtre du Rideau Vert s'est installé définitivement, en 1960, rue Saint-Denis à Montréal, dans l'ancien Théâtre Stella. Depuis, la salle a été rénovée et transformée à deux reprises. Sa dernière rénovation (1991) a porté la capacité d'assistance à 426 places.

Madame Denise Filiatrault en est actuellement la directrice artistique.
Le fonds d'archives du Théâtre du Rideau Vert est conservé au centre d'archives de Montréal de Bibliothèque et Archives nationales du Québec.

Rideau Vert theater
The Théâtre du Rideau Vert is a theater in Montreal, Quebec, Canada.
It is located at 4664 Saint Denis Street in the borough of Le Plateau-Mont-Royal.
Founded in 1949 by Yvette Brind'Amour and Mercedes Palomino, the Théâtre du Rideau Vert was the first professional French-language theater in Canada. It was also one of the first Quebec theaters to invest in the creation of local works by fostering the emergence of Felix Leclerc, Marie-Claire Blais, Gratien Gélinas, Michel Tremblay, Antonine Maillet, etc. The Théâtre du Rideau Vert is also where Michel Tremblay created the Joual piece Les Belles-Soeurs in 1968.
After working in various venues (Compagnons de Saint-Laurent, Monument-National, Gesù, l'Anjou), the Théâtre du Rideau Vert settled permanently in 1960 on Saint Denis Street in Montreal, in the old Stella Theatre. Since then, the theatre has been renovated twice. Its last renovation occurred in 1991 and focused on increasing capacity to 426 seats.
