Félix-Leclerc theater

Partly located beneath the municipal library and adjoining the Val-d’Or exhibition center, the Félix-Leclerc small theater is at the heart of the city’s cultural life.

In addition to making room for more spectators, the venue’s 2011 expansion allows for a wider range of configurations and provides superior acoustics. This is the third expansion of the original building, designed by MLS in 1967. Although a new generation of architects designed the project and left their distinctive mark on it, the structure as a whole maintains a common architectural idiom and a purity of lines that transcends time.

In 2016, the city of Val-d’Or renamed the building “Complexe culturel Marcel-Monette” in honour of the founder of MLS, architect Marcel Monette.
