"Thank you to all of you who have made 2Pierrots a special place, a family." "2Pierrots is much more than a building. It is a soul, and this one will remain very much alive!" Marilou Sciascia Ruel, the daughter of 2Pierrots' founder, told LaPresse: "The reason I'm closing is that I couldn't see when I would be able to reopen 2Pierrots, it's a 700-person facility. At what point I could open 2Pierrots so that people could dance and have fun like before, I don't see when that could happen." A virtual goodbye party will be held on December 12 that'll have performances by multiple artists. It starts at 7 p.m., so if you're already missing the greatness that was 2Pierrots, make sure to make your calendar!
