Place des Arts - Junior Theatre
Place des Arts has a whole range of programming geared for families with children of all ages for very reasonable prices. Known as 'PDA junior', families with kids as young as 3 can enjoy a fun, interactive play for just 8$ a person, or 25$ for a family of 4. I think it sounds like a great way to introduce children to theatre. It seems like most of the programming is only French but since a lot of families in Montreal are bilingual or want to expose their children to more French, it should be a great experience. Some things are a little more expensive but for the most part seem pretty reasonable.

Centaur Theatre: Far Away Tales, Close to Home
Going to the theatre is such a great experience! I can't wait for my children to be old enough to bring them. For parents who do have children that are old enough, the Centaur Theatre is putting on a play appropriate for children aged 7 - 15. This play, comprised of three stories, will have music, dance and theatre. It is called "Far Away Tales, Close to Home" and promises to be a magical experience for the new theatre-goers and is even less expensive then going to the movies!
