About Concrete Theatre

Concrete Theatre is an award winning professional touring theatre company based in Edmonton, Alberta committed to creating, developing and producing artistically excellent and culturally diverse Theatre for Young Audiences that explores issues relevant to the lives of young people and their families. Concrete Theatre performs primarily in schools, bringing all the sets, lights, costumes and props necessary for the production, and provides educator-created teacher study guides to expand learning. Concrete Theatre productions have toured to schools throughout Alberta and B.C. and to professional theatres across Canada. We develop plays for a variety of age and grade levels from pre-K to Grade 12.  Some of the topics that we have explored in our productions include bullying, family violence, decision making, substance abuse, racism, sexuality, identity, violence and conflict resolution.

Concrete hosts the Edmonton chapter of the 3.7% Initiative- which is for women and non-binary or gender diverse people who are ethnically diverse who work together to create a new kind of artistic leadership in theatre in this country! Currently, self-identified culturally diverse women and non-binary people hold only 3.7% of the artistic theatre leadership positions in this country. 

Our Mission

Concrete Theatre is an Edmonton based company of artists that works in the community using theatre to promote cultural diversity and to examine social issues. Concrete Theatre’s mission is to challenge and provoke awareness in young people and their families of community and cultural issues that are relevant and affecting their lives; to create, develop and produce high quality, culturally diverse artistic theatre experiences for young audiences and their families; and to nurture, develop and train artists in the traditions of facilitation and participatory theatre.
