| dc.description | Detail, cupola on variant of model "Jonquille" (1425 sq. ft.); Théâtre de Quat’sous was established in 1963 by a group of actors under the direction of Paul Buissonneau. Together they bought a synagogue located on Avenue des Pins in Montréal and transformed it into a small theater that never ceased to present daring productions from young creators. Serious problems related to the security and comfort of the users combined with the need for production spaces led to the decision to demolish and rebuild Théâtre de Quat’sous on the same site. The architects (Principal, Éric Gauthier) sought to capture the ephemeral nature of theater performance and memories in the materials used; both "ghostly" materials and those that evoked the former building.
