For the Phase 1,2 and 3 shows ::

Since its inauguration in 1995, Usine C has greatly contributed to the cultural
and sociological development of the south-central district it calls home. Born
from the collaboration of three important Quebec cultural institutions, CARBONE
14, le Nouveau Théâtre Expérimental and Omnibus du Théâtre Espace Libre, Usine C is a top-notch performance venue, hosting shows of all kinds with a sophisticated cafe-restaurant, a grand reception hall and a peaceful garden. The expansive space was conceived with all this in mind. Its 50,000 square feet were designed specifically to meet the toughest demands of directors, performers and audience members.
Redesigning and refurbishing a forgotten factory in the heart of Montreal has not only served to preserve a piece of history, but also stakes out a piece of the future. Effectively merging the industrial heritage with the current residential and cultural personality of the neighbourhood, Usine C has also carved out an important place in Quebec's artistic future.

Left in a state of neglect since 1981, this outstanding building, inspired by
the work of Frank Lloyd Wright, was recently restored and houses the theatre
company's production facilities since may 2003.
Located on the corner of Notre-Dame and Letourneux streets ( 2 blocks east of Pie IX) the structure was originally Town of Maisonneuve's No.1 Fire Station. It now houses office space and theatre production facilities as well as a multipurpose hall which can be used for rehearsals and the development of new productions. Part of the premises are also available for rental to cultural organizations.
Since May 2003, the Théâtre Sans Fil operates and resides in the Caserne Letourneux TSF, a unique centre for creation in Montreal. Considered an architectural landmark, the Caserne Letourneux TSF is now a centre for the creation and the production of shows.
