The Bathurst Street Theatre is a theatre in Toronto, Ontario, that is housed in a former church. The Gothic revival building is located at 736 Bathurst Street at Lennox, one traffic light to the south of Bloor Street, Honest Ed's, the Bathurst Street Subway Station, and across Bathurst from Central Technical School. The 500 seat theatre is in the former church sanctuary while the smaller 100 seat Annex Theatre is in an adjoining building at 730 Bathurst Street.
The buildings are owned by and house the Randolph Academy for the Performing Arts. The theatres are used for the school's production and are also rented out to travelling shows and local theatre companies.

Famous quotes containing the words street and/or theatre:
“And in these dark cells,
packed street after street,
souls live, hideous yet
O disfigured, defaced,
with no trace of the beauty
men once held so light.”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
“The poem of the mind in the act of finding
What will suffice. It has not always had
To find: the scene was set; it repeated what
Was in the script.
Then the theatre was changed
To something else. Its past was a souvenir.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
