Can Trickster be in two places at once? Yes! Our 2 touring rigs go all across Alberta every week. This week, our artists are at East Lake School in Chestermere — crafting stories of inclusion and shared values — while students at Mayfield School in Edmonton are becoming the bold, empathetic problem-solvers their communities need.
Only 2 weeks left in the season.

When students stand twice as tall, something shifts in the audience. Suddenly, the story isn’t just on stage — it’s in the room.

.chris.gamble has spent years training across three countries — from Red Deer College to clown schools in New Zealand — and building Calgary’s clown community as Creative Director of the Calgary Clown Festival.
When he works with Trickster, all of that craft goes into one room, with a group of kids, and one week to make something real.
“Working with Trickster Theatre is one of the most rewarding parts of my practice. I get to really dig into the many possibilities of devised work — playful, physical, and deeply collaborative. Inspiring kids to understand subject matter through play and movement, not just talking at them.”
That’s what we look for in every Trickster artist. Someone who brings their whole practice into the room. Thank you so much Chris for your art!
