Le Nouveau International est un organisme à but non lucratif qui a vu le jour en 2009 lorsque des artistes du Théâtre Sainte-Catherine, du Théâtre 314 et de divers autres domaines se sont réunis pour faire de l’art. Depuis, nous avons joué des centaines de spectacles, principalement au Théâtre Sainte-Catherine, mais aussi en Europe, aux États-Unis et dans tout le Canada. Avec des artistes de tous types de médiums et de milieux, nous espérons faire en sorte que l’art célèbre continuellement les artistes en devenir, en leur donnant une scène et une plateforme pour créer des expériences mémorables. Ce collectif est ouvert aux soumissions et aux collaborations, mais produit également avec une équipe d’artistes dévoués qui aiment l’art des bons moments.
