About the Theater
The National Arts Centre (NAC) raised its curtains for the first time in 1969. Created by the Parliament of Canada as a Centennial project during the 1960s, the NAC has become Canada's foremost showcase for the performing arts.
Today, the NAC works with countless artists, both emerging and established, from across Canada and around the world, and collaborates with scores of other arts organizations across the country.
The NAC is strongly committed to being a leader and innovator in each of the performing arts fields in which it works - classical music, English theatre, French theatre, dance, variety, and community programming. It is at the forefront of youth and educational activities, supporting programmes for young and emerging artists and programmes for young audiences, and producing resources and study materials for teachers.
The NAC is the only multidisciplinary, bilingual performing arts centre in North America, and one of the largest in the world.
Tout sur le CAN
Le Centre national des Arts (CNA) a ouvert ses portes en 1969. Créé par le Parlement du Canada à titre de projet du Centenaire dans les années 1960, le CNA est vite devenu la principale vitrine des arts de la scène au Canada.
Aujourd'hui, le CNA travaille avec d'innombrables artistes du Canada et du monde entier, des plus prometteurs aux plus célèbres, et s'associe à maintes organisations artistiques de partout au pays.
Le CNA se veut un chef de file et un innovateur dans chacune des disciplines artistiques qu'il embrasse - musique classique, théâtre français, théâtre anglais, variétés et programmation régionale. Il est aux avant-postes en matière de programmation jeunesse et d'activités éducatives, soutenant de nombreux programmes pour artistes en herbe et émergeants et pour jeunes publics, et produisant des outils et du matériel pédagogique pour les enseignants.
Le CNA est le seul centre des arts de la scène à la fois multidisciplinaire et bilingue en Amérique du Nord, et l'un des plus grands au monde. NATIONAL ARTS CENTRE

Ticket broker websites and the reselling of event tickets online are major
concerns for us here at Broadway Across Canada. Many fraudulent
companies are setting up shop on the internet making it very easy for you, our
valued guests, to find alternative online sources to purchase your theatre
tickets. Unfortunately, you could wind up paying a premium for bogus
tickets and we would have little recourse in being able to help.
Don’t take chances by purchasing theatre tickets from just any website. Make
your first click BroadwayAcrossCanada.ca to reach authorized online ticket
sellers for all Broadway Across Canada events. |
