École Parkdale School was privileged to have Trickster Theatre as an artist-in-residency for the week of December 9-13. Canadian Parents for French (CPF) applied for a grant and raised funds to allow for all Parkdale students to participate in this opportunity.
The final performance was held on December 13. What an amazing show! The performances were created entirely by the students with the assistance of the Trickster artists. The show was based around the theme “The Gift is Christmas” and combined global citizenship with Christmas topics.
Throughout the week, all students engaged in activities to build their piece and increase their theatrical skills. The week was intensive and required students to work outside of their comfort zones to produce and perform the show. The end result was outstanding and each student was excited, enthusiastic and proud of their piece.
Well done École Parkdale School and thank you CPF and Trickster Theatre for a week the students won’t soon forget.
