So You've Been Saddled With Drama

Are you a teacher that just inherited a Drama course or two and feel lost?

UPDATE!!! RESCHEDULED TO OCTOBER 16

Are you new to teaching secondary Drama? Don't know how to start or survive? Need some fresh new ideas? This is the session for you! In this session, you will learn how to foster a safe space for creativity and discover easy and effective forms of teaching in the Drama classroom for both junior and senior high levels.

We promise you will leave with games and activities you can use in your classroom the next day.

Misfit Theatre YYC acknowledges Treaty 7 Territory as our home, which encompasses the traditional lands of the Blackfoot Confederacy, including the Kainai, Siksika, and Piikani Nations, as well as the Tsuu T'ina (Dene) Nation and the Stoney/Nakoda Nation, comprising the Bearspaw, Chiniki, and Wesley Nations, along with the Métis Nation Region 3. We recognize and honor the stewardship of these Indigenous peoples over the land on which we operate.

Acknowledgment is merely the first step toward meaningful support; as we move forward, we aspire to become better allies, facilitators, and advocates for our Indigenous neighbors. We respect, champion, and uplift underrepresented voices in all jobs. Our stages and stories aim to reflect the beauty, diversity, and nuance of our city. We want to work with artists from every walk of life; we want to see talent we haven’t seen before; we want to see you and your art.
