Resident Artist Educator Program

The Resident Artist Educator program at YPT furthers the theatre’s leadership in the field of arts education. Resident Artist Educators (RAEs) are selected each season to facilitate programming in the Education & Participation Department including Drama School, Educational and Community Programming. Occasionally, RAEs are asked to work on productions in various artistic capacities.  As both artists and educators, each participant creates, teaches and learns during their residency thereby embodying the company’s dual identity as a professional theatre and centre for arts education.
