This is a very exciting time in the history of Alberta Theatre Projects as we look to the future: how our company can continue to be a national leader in new play development, producing and presenting world class productions of contemporary theatre that engages our community by reflecting their stories on stage. We are also in the initial planning stages of a pilot national touring program for our ATP productions.

As we plan to innovate, reenergize and envision a bold, bright future of our company for the next 50 plus years –laying a new foundation for growth in the next few seasons – we are also reviewing how we do things at our company to make the future even brighter.
