Moyse Hall is located on the McGill campus, directly behind the Arts Building.
We ask that all designs be brought in to us 1 week prior to your move in. This allows us time to arrange for all necessary crewing and technical requirements, it also gives us a chance to catch possible problems.
For more information, please contact corinne.deeley [at] mcgill.ca (Corinne Deeley), Technical Production Manager of Moyse Hall at 514-398-6578.
