Do you want to be part of a team of artists creating theatre and dance performances in schools?

Each artist will support classes in creating theatre pieces based on the chosen theme.

Trickster Theatre is hiring artists for next season 2026-27!

The ideal candidate will have some experience in at least two of these areas: Choreography, Improv, or Devising theatre. Experience with lighting and sound equipment, as well as sound and video editing is an asset. A drivers license is also an asset.
