*The cost for schools is heavily subsidized so that we can bring the magic of theatre to as many students across Alberta as we can. If you are in a position to support bringing professional theatre productions to Alberta students, please consider making a donation today.
If your school would like to bring in a touring show, but is unable to cover the subsidized fee for the production, we highly recommend you explore funding through Daytrippers Children’s Charity. Daytrippers aims to remove financial barriers and enable enriched learning opportunities for in-need children across Canada. Daytrippers can provide up to $1500 to help elementary students in lower-income and remote communities to experience learning opportunities from recognized educational and cultural institutions to help unlock their full potential.
