Dance school eyes Plateau church
The École supérieure de ballet du Québec has its eye on Saint-Denis church, on Laurier near the metro, a plan in which church activities would continue in the basement while a lot of money is spent fixing up and enlarging the church for dance classes and practice space.
I suppose we have to do something with these church buildings, and people might as well practise their fouettés as anything.

Very bizarre article. It’s all about the ballet school having this big plan but not a single word from the Fabrique of the church itself. And what about the existing tenants in the presbytere. Odd way to write an article.

They should wait a little bit.
Cirque du Soleil’s HQ should soon be available.

MistaP, this city will always need a clown school.

École Nationale de cirque exists independent of Cirque du Soleil, no worries there. Cirque was a very bug employer but there are many other small troupes even just in Montreal.
Breathe a sigh of relief, there is no danger of a clown shortage in Montreal.
