Solar Stage Children's Theatre is located in the brownstone condominium at 100 Upper Madison on the concourse level. We are adjacent to 4950 Yonge St., The Madison Centre (our mailing address). The Madison Centre is 3 blocks NORTH of Sheppard on the WEST side of Yonge St.
Parking
There is free parking currently available in The Madison Centre underground parking off Yonge St. - enter from Upper Madison Avenue. Head straight to the underground parking lot entrance. If the Gate is up, it's FREE. (If gate is DOWN, it is NOT free and the cost is a $6 flat rate on weekends.) It will say VISITOR FULL, this is not true. There is no parking attendants working, and there is no ticket to take. Head down the ramp, turn right. Find a parking spot. Head up to the concourse level with the elevator or the stairs. Turn left and walk down the hall to Solar Stage Children's Theatre.
Green P paid public parking is also available in our building by entering off Beecroft (1st street West of Yonge). There is also general street parking in the area.
TTC
The closest station is Sheppard Station on the Yonge Line. Monday through Saturday, the Madison Centre is accessible via an underground tunnel. To access this tunnel, exit Sheppard Station through the SHEPPARD CENTRE exit. Walk through the mall, and turn LEFT at the FOOD COURT. Exit the building and pass the KEG on your RIGHT. You will see a sign that says Tunnel to Madison Centre and Federal Building. Take this tunnel all the way through and it will lead you to the Madison Centre. You will pass a HAIR SALON on your LEFT and a MUFFIN STORE on your right. We are on the LEFT right next to the elevator.
On Sundays, exit Sheppard Station out the HARLANDALE AVE exit. Turn LEFT and walk along Yonge St until you get to the Second Cup Coffee Shop. Right before the Second Cup, look to your LEFT. The building you see is the Madison Centre. Enter through a door marked Emergency Alarm Will Unlock Door (not applicable during the day).
