ABOUT THE AGT
The Al Green Theatre is an accessible 250 seat venue located on the corner of Bloor Street and Spadina Avenue, inside the Miles Nadal JCC.
Steps away from Spadina Station, we are accessible by streetcar, subway and bus. Multiple parking lots and numerous food options surround our building. Since the fall of 2003 the AGT has hosted an array of different events including theatre, dance, music, film, lectures, conferences, social events and film shoots. Year-round bookings and professional staff are just some of the perks of joining the AGT family.
UPCOMING EVENTS
Regrettably, at this time, there are no upcoming events as the AGT is closed due to the nature of the pandemic. We will review this on an ongoing basis and this section will be updated if and when we are able to reopen the theatre.
The staff of Al Green Theatre is dedicated to delivering impeccable customer service. To ensure all patrons have an extraordinary experience we have prepared some frequently asked questions for your convenience. Should you need clarification on any of this information please contact our Bookings Coordinator at mnjccbookings@mnjcc.org
