Theatre Alberta’s 15th annual Emerge auditions took place in April 2018 at Varscona Theatre in Edmonton and at the Big Secret Theatre – Arts Commons in Calgary. We hosted Edmonton and Calgary’s artistic and casting directors and graduates from theatre programs across the province. 2018 Emerge included graduates from MacEwan University,University of Alberta (BA & BFA), Rosebud School of the Arts, Red Deer College, University of Lethbridge, U of C School of Creative and Performing Arts, Company of Rogues Actors’ Studio, and Ambrose University.
Fostering relationships between Alberta’s emerging and professional artists
Emerge is an annual audition event held in both Edmonton and Calgary that brings together graduates of Alberta post-secondary acting programs with Alberta’s artistic directors, freelance directors, casting directors, and talent agents.
Emerge strengthens ties, and increases communications between our post-secondary drama programs, and the professional community. Theatre Alberta initiated the program in 2004, and to date 958 emerging actors have participated in the Emerge audition process for the professional theatre community in our province.
Participation in Emerge is by invitation only. Theatre Alberta contacts post-secondary institutions and professional companies/individuals with invitations to participate throughout the year.
