Theatre
Étienne-Brûlé has been credited for its numerous French plays and talent shows (Soirée Cabaret-Cabaret des Étoiles) across the province of Ontario, under directors Luc Bernier and lately Darrell Barrs who use the logo "Le Théâtre d'Étienne-Brûlé". In April 2008, the theater troupe did a presentation of "Jeune femme cherche homme désespérément", which had 3000 spectators in total throughout the week of presentation. The play was written by renowned Quebec writer Carole Tremblay. For 2008's Soirée Cabaret, the theme was La croisière s'amuse. They are currently presenting a show featuring five plays by Félix Leclerc in "Le P'tit Bonheur".
