Volunteers Needed - Please

 

Hello Maple Ridge Community,  

As shared in our Weekly Update on Friday, Maple Ridge is excited to welcome Trickster Theatre to our School from March 16-19.  

Trickster Theatre is an artist-in-residency company based in Calgary, Alberta. They tour across Alberta, creating approx. 50+ original shows a year in all kinds of communities based on a theme chosen by the school and developed with the assistance of Trickster. These residencies take place in schools, transforming the gym into a theatre.  

A Trickster Theatre Residency involves the theatre team coming into our school for a week and facilitating staff and students in creating a unique and highly visual theatre. This week of workshops and rehearsals will culminate in a fun and high-energy production. They have been working with schools for over four decades! In that time, they have found that having parent involvement during a residency project greatly enhances the final production. 

There are many ways parents can be involved in a residency – from preparing costumes and making props, to helping the Trickster Team move equipment in and out of the school. 

From March 16-19, 2026, Trickster will take over Maple Ridge School, and we need your help!
