About W.P. Puppet Theatre Society

W.P. Puppet Theatre Society is a not-for-profit, charitable organization committed to producing professional, innovative, Canadian puppet theatre as well as delivering enjoyable and socially responsible learning experiences through the art of puppetry. We seek to spark curiosity and provide understanding about the world we live in, examine the issues of our time, consider solutions and inspire our audiences to become active, ethical and involved citizens. Since 1991 we have toured to Calgary schools, theatres and community events performing original and unique puppet theatre productions and offering a wide range of learning opportunities for children and adults to over 5000 audience members annually. We provide our programs, products and services to young and adult audiences locally, nationally and internationally including: • Performances, workshops, residencies, and professional development for schools. • Performances and workshops for community events and festivals • Commissioned puppetry pieces and community engagement workshops • Puppet Power Conference, a biennial conference that examines the power of puppetry beyond performance
