The Monument-National is a historic Canadian theatre located at 1182 Saint Laurent Boulevard in Montreal, Quebec. With a capacity of over 1,600 seats, the venue was erected between 1891 and 1894 and was originally the cultural centre of the Saint-Jean-Baptiste Society. The Monument-National was for decades an essential stop for the great French, English, and Yiddish vaudevillians, as well as stars like Edith Piaf, Emma Albani, and Maurice Schwartz. It once housed the Starland, one of the first cinemas in North America. Quebec's first feminist launched their campaigns here in the 1900s.
Fully renovated for its one-hundredth anniversary, today the Monument-National's romantic past is linked to renewed possibilities for the future.
