Theatre Alberta is a provincial arts service organization and registered charity that supports and promotes the Albertan theatre community. We work to engage and foster meaningful relationships and partnerships between the professional, emerging, amateur and educational theatre communities.

We are also a member-service organization that proudly represents more than 1,000 individual and group members from across Alberta. Theatre Alberta members include some of the most active, prominent and innovative theatre makers, educators and enthusiasts in our province. We represent nearly every theatre company and post-secondary theatre training institution in Alberta.

Theatre Alberta offers a wide variety of programs and services. The Theatre Alberta Library is Canada’s largest independent, fully-circulating theatre library. We have more than 18,500 titles of playscripts, musicals, periodicals, and reference materials. While our collection is physically located in Edmonton, we will mail titles to our out-of-town members free-of-charge!

Artstrek is Theatre Alberta’s flagship educational program: a summer theatre school for teens (ages 13-18) that will celebrate its 54th anniversary this summer! During a week in residence at Red Deer College, students discover acting, voice, movement, directing, sound/music, design, creation and collaboration in a supportive and creative environment.

Canadian Arts Jobs – 03/30/12

“Abstract Art” by Heather Plewes (@hplewes) 
[Want to see your art here? Click here for more info.]

Hello!

Yesterday was a looong day for me as the night before I went to bed at 1 a.m. then woke up at 5:40 a.m. Every day/night has pretty much been that way for the last few weeks as I try to balance everything I need to do while juggling a demanding (!) schedule.

Feeling the lack of sleep dragging at my body and fogging my mind, I asked over CAC, Twitter, and Facebook how our community keeps their (artistic) energy up.

Here are a few of their answers:

“Little naps during the day and night! And eating energy making foods and lots of water…” - Susan Weiss

“take stretch breaks, dance and….coffee helps too :)” - Dorothy Weiss

“Good music and awesome coffee – not crappy coffee, this is important! Good tasting coffee = good work” - Ben Purkiss

“I pace myself and I take short frequent and guilt free breaks to avoid burning out early.”@sanleigh

“i can only write out at coffee shops. The tea and company keeps me going.” – laurie petrou (@lauriepetrou)

“I eat lots of nuts and make sure I have something good/new to listen to:)” – D’Andrea Bowie (@d_andreab)

“Healthy snacks, and drinking lots of water. Being busy with dance makes me very happy and grateful, so that helps the most!” –  Nicole Rose Bond (@NicoleRoseBond)

“Going to the gym totally helps” - @NFBMediatheque

“Healthy food choices and hydration. Plus quality coffee…” – Kate U (@TOViolinKate)

“Gym and/or ride my horse. Mostly “or” (no time for both!).” - @wpgreview

“3 cups of tea before 10:00am” – Karina Bergmans, @KBergmans

The suggestions kept coming, with most including food, exercise, naps, music, and coffee. Lots of coffee. Good coffee. Confession: I don’t drink coffee. No wonder my mind is so foggy! lol!

How do YOU keep your energy up when you’re super busy? Leave a comment below!

Perhaps finding the perfect opportunity will fuel you up, so here’s a great list of jobs for you below.

Have a wonderful day!
