Tech like a Girl

Tech like a Girl is a career pathway initiative for students interested in pursuing a career in the technical arts. We are proud to launch this initiative in partnership with IATSE 210 & 212, as we believe it is important to mentor, teach, empower, and encourage the next generation of theatre technicians in Alberta.

Students will participate in a seven-month long mentorship program (January 2027 -July 2027) where they will gain hands-on experience in audio, lighting, stage carpentry, stage management, and more!  Ten students will be selected in each city (Edmonton and Calgary) to take part in this exclusive program. After the training period is complete, there will be an opportunity to shadow or intern with the Jubilee and/or our partners.
