Sponsor This Theme

We need your help to bring our Trickster residency program into schools that might not otherwise be able to afford it.  Sponsor one of our main Trickster themes and enable Alberta students to do a week-long Trickster residency based on that theme.  Some of our popular themes include:

  • CanadaTwo children stand with white mustaches in plaid clothes and hats
  • Leadership
  • Kids Go Global
  • Roots & Wings
  • Finding the Balance
  • Literary Genres
  • Science Alive
  • Health
  • Diversity
  • Math

Our goal is to help Alberta schools bring a Trickster residency into their school. The level of subsidy needed is usually about $20-50 per student.

A $25,000 donation would sponsor Trickster residencies in approximately 5 schools – that about 1800 Alberta students and families that would get to participate in the creation of live children’s theatre!  You will also receive recognition as the title sponsor for that theme for the year.

Welcome to a totally new way to bring theatre into your classroom

Trickster Theatre is now offering two day workshops in both Science and Storytelling.

We bring a professional Trickster artist to your classroom, and they work with your students, using physical theatre, to bring the curriculum to life. Each unit of Science or Storytelling allows us to work with 4 classes and each class will see the artist twice over the two day workshop.

For Science, we have programs for Grades 1-6 supporting the new Alberta Science Curriculum. We can facilitate workshops on Space, Living Systems, Earth Systems, Matter and Energy. We get the children up and on their feet, acting out the curriculum.

For Storytelling, we have programs for Kindergarten-Grade 9. We also recently taught this material to adults at a recent Alberta Teachers Convention, and it was a hit! The teacher will choose an image or story prompt, and the artist will help the class to storyboard the content, imagine different scenarios inspired by the picture, then act it out!

Our Science and Storytelling workshops are excellent options for remaining field trip budgets, as you don’t have to pay for a bus!

Please reach out to us if you have any questions.
