Theatre Unlabeled

Theatre Unlabeled is an acting school in Winnipeg, Manitoba. We are dedicated to the art of improvisational theatre, and provide training and performance opportunities for actors working in improvisational forms.
We believe that theatre is for everyone, and that anyone can act or improvise: all that is necessary is to create an environment where growth is possible. We think that attaching labels to other people limits possibilities for growth and change, particularly labels such as "talented" or "untalented."
We are also community focused, and think that theatre training has mental, physical, and social benefits that go beyond teaching acting or improv skills. We are dedicating to partner with community organizations to improve well being for all, through the discipline of play.
We offer acting classes throughout the year to both children and adults.
"How often do we do this with people? We don’t see them for who they are, but for how we label what they are in relation to us.
That will color and limit the possible relationships you can have with them. When we see our idea of what we see, it is a partial illusion. When we see without labels, we truly see. We develop an artist’s eye."
-Gary Schwartz

Wild Roots Theatre

Founded in 1991, Wild Roots Theatre is a Winnipeg-based, incorporated charitable theatre organization dedicated to environmental education through performance—what we proudly call "Theatre for the Planet". Starting out as activists, we have grown to offer programming for kids, families and the general public, creating participatory theatrical experiences that make environmental and community issues feel real, urgent, and personal.
We explore environmental science through theatre, allowing participants to imagine, empathize and laugh, all while understanding the serious issues we face. We inspire audiences and participants to be gentler on our planet, giving them both hope and accountability through meaningful yet simple changes in daily habits, with tangible goals. Our programming is informative, realistic, and optimistic, emphasizing community spirit and individual action, with the message that every little bit of help is an invaluable contribution.
Through love of theatre -story, play, and emotional engagement- we elicit connection and real action. We aim to create artistic, engaging and memorable theatrical experiences that promote environmental stewardship and empower people of all ages to participate in climate protection. Grounded in sustainable practices, we are committed to diversity, equity, inclusion and accessibility in all the work we do.
