Quest Theatre is open to inspiration from any artist who is passionate about sharing their love of theatre with young people. We welcome artists of various races, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, religious affiliation, and ability, as these represent the audience we serve.

As Quest Theatre is a touring company, artists cannot be enrolled as full or part-time students as of September 2016. We are considering local, Calgary artists, but will consider artists that are able to travel to Calgary and find accommodation for themselves to make Calgary their point of origin while on contract.

We thank all artists in advance for their interest however those selected for an audition will be contacted. Please do not call Quest Theatre.
