Introducing: THE FREESTANDING ROOM

Author: Christina - Published 2013-04-03 08:00 - (3035 Reads)

The Freestanding Room

Founded in 2008, The Freestanding Room is a theatre co-op made up of actors, writers, directors, and producers who believe that big things can happen in small places. They like a good story and the chance to tell it fast and easy. Together they tend the Freestanding Room, an intimate space used to sharpen their tools, corral their ideas, spin their yarns, and, sooner rather than later, to invite everyone hungry for a tale told simply and authentically to come sit around their fire.

The Freestanding Room is at 4324 St-Laurent, 3rd Floor, in Montreal.
