The Kailash Mital Theatre honours Mr. Kailash Mital, who together with his wife Nandi, had established a long history of philanthropy at Carleton University, creating a number of scholarships for small business and entrepreneurship.
With a 444 seating capacity, the Kailash Mital Theatre is suitable for dramatic productions, acoustic and amplified concerts, and both conferences and meetings.
Adjacent to Southam hall, the theatre serves both as a community resource and a classroom.
