Please note: Theatre Alberta reserves the right to deny posts that we deem to be offensive, misleading, exploitative, inaccurate, or harmful to individuals.

You will be charged $40.00 to post your ad on Theatre Alberta's website. Credit card information will be collected at the bottom of this form through our secure payment processor, Helcim. Your listing will be posted only after Theatre Alberta confirms receipt of payment and approves your listing for publishing.

Theatre Alberta's RSS feed is primarily reserved for live theatre initiatives and/or those initiatives that primarily benefit those working in the Albertan theatre industry. Ads submitted to our website that do not fall under at least one of those two categories will be reviewed on a case by case basis.

Theatre Alberta has implemented a no-refund policy for ads submitted to our website. Before you submit, please ensure that:

a) You or your organization do not have a Theatre Alberta membership. If you have a question about your membership status, please email us at theatreab@theatrealberta.com or call us at 780-422-8162 (or toll-free in Alberta at 1-888-422-8160).
b) Your ad falls within the parameters of our feed. If you have a question about the content of your ad, please Simone, Communications and Marketing Coordinator at simone@theatrealberta.com before you submit.

There is no charge to post a News story on Theatre Alberta's website. However, we are pretty selective about what is considered News for our site.

News is generally considered noteworthy announcements or happenings that directly involve members of Alberta's theatre community. More often than not, the news item should have happened or will be happening within the province of Alberta.

Theatre Alberta will not post an audition, job, call for submissions, workshop, courses/classes, volunteer call, special event, fundraiser, theatre production information or any other listing that would be otherwise considered a Classified ad as a News story.

Thanks!

Our What's On blog is for any event in Alberta that needs an audience. These can include fundraisers, free performances, and actual theatre productions.

If you are posting about a theatre production, please ensure that it is also listed in Theatre Alberta's online Playbill (link opens in a new window).

What's On and Fringe Festival listings can be scheduled to align with your organization's marketing plans. Please note that Theatre Alberta receives hundreds of listings every year and items can move down and off the front page of our website quite quickly.

(Check all that apply. More information about each subject will pop up below this question with each subject.)
Theatre Alberta's Playbill
Artstrek sponsorship opportunities

Playbill is the most comprehensive play listing service in Alberta. Nearly every professional, community (amateur) and post-secondary production is listed in a searchable database on our website at theatrealberta.com/playbill.

Young Playbill is a comprehensive listing of youth theatre programs offered by our members and friends, listed online at theatrealberta.com/playbill/youth.

Your show will automatically show up on Theatre Alberta's main Playbill page (http://www.theatrealberta.com/playbill) during the month(s) that it is playing.

Our website also has a "Playing in Alberta This Week" widget that appears in the right hand column of nearly every web page throughout our site. Shows will appear there during their respective runs.

Inclusion in the online playbill means that your show(s) will automatically appear in the Shows Opening section of Theatre Buzz, our monthly enews sent out to more than 3,000 subscribers. Your show will be included the month that it opens.

You can also schedule a post advertising your show to be published in our What's On blog. The What's On blog allows you write show descriptions, add pictures and any other media (YouTube video, audio files, etc.) to help sell your show. Your post will also appear on the home page of our website and you can schedule your post to be published at any time during the year. You can submit a What's On using this form. (We recommend that you schedule your post to be published the weekend before you open.)

If you are an Albertan theatre company and wish to be added to Theatre Alberta's online Playbill please visit http://theatrealberta.com/playbill/information-form. If you already have a company profile on our Playbill and wish to add a show or make changes to some show information, please visit http://www.theatrealberta.com/playbill/season-information. (Once again, this is a member-exclusive service; non-members must pay $25 per event to add their season to Theatre Alberta's Playbill.)

Theatre Buzz is Theatre Alberta's monthly eNewsletter, and has more than 3,000 subscribers. Your post will automatically appear in Buzz as part of our Classifieds service, as long as your post has not expired before the next issue is distributed. (Only Fringe Festival blog entries are not included in Theatre Buzz.)

We hope to introduce display advertising to Theatre Buzz in the future, but no timeline has been created for this initiative at this time.

Program sponsorship or partnership opportunities are designed for larger scale investments. Here are some examples of past partnerships:
