Theatre Prospero creates productions of new and old theatre rooted in many cultures’ mythologies, from Zulu Epics to Shakespeare. 

The artists and audiences that come together to share these stories reflect their diversity. The venues where they meet include theatres in Edmonton, our home venue on Alberta Avenue, found spaces, classrooms, seniors’ centres and school gyms across Alberta. 

We give Alberta students the chance to create theatre themselves with professional artists via our School Artists In Residency Program.
