Artstrek is a theatre school like no other — a residential summer theatre program for teens that has been running the province of Alberta since 1959.
The program, which takes place each summer on the campus of Red Deer College, is about the exploration of theatre and the components of theatre production rather than getting a show on stage. Over the course of a week, participants explore acting, voice, directing, movement, sound/music, design, creation, and integration with some of Alberta’s finest theatre professionals and educators.
