For groups of 8 people or more

A theatrical experience that will put you in the shoes of a convict who was recently interned at the Quebec City Common Gaol.

As soon as you arrive, the physician will examine you and explain how he plans to cure you of all the physical and mental ills that some inmates appear to be afflicted with. Then, the prison guard will take you on a tour of death row and the isolation cells, where you might well end up if you don’t follow the rules! Special treats include the sampling of period remedies and various punishments!
