The season begins with the Quebec English-language premiere of the sexy Broadway hit comedy Venus in Fur by David Ives (Oct 14 to Nov 9, 2014).

The Quesbec premiere of the haunting and darkly funny Terminus by Irish playwright Mark O'Rowe kicks off the New Year (Jan 20 to Feb 15,, 2015), followed by the Canadian premiere of The Goodnight Bird by Colleen Murphy, recipient of a Governor General's Literary Award for Drama. Her thought- provoking comedic drama about old love and wild desire will be directed by Roy Surette (Deb 24 to Mar 22, 2015). Completing the mainstage subscription season are two world premieres by award-winning Montreal authors who return to Centaur Theatre to stage outstanding new works. Set in Old Montreak, Vittorio Rossi's engaging and funny piece The Envelope satirizs the Canadian film industry (Mar 24 to Apr 19, 2015), and Marianne Ackerman's clever Triplex Nervosa wrestles with art and property in Montreal's trendy Mile End. Directed by Roy Surette, the play clpses the 2014-2015 Season on a comedic high note (Apr 21 to May 17, 2015).
