Institutionele geschiedenis

Alberta Theatre Projects of Calgary, Alberta was founded as a non-profit organization in 1972. It has evolved from a small group of artists to an established company in the Canadian theatre scene. Its founding members were Douglas Riske, artistic director, and Lucille Wagner, managing director. Paddy Campbell provided many original children's works for the company. In 1983 the two directors' positions were merged into one producing director, filled by Michael Dobbin, who continued in this capacity until 1999. The original mandate was to use new work to bring Canadian history to life for young people. The Theatre-in-Education division of ATP was established in coordination with the Calgary Public and Separate School Boards. The mandate was expanded in 1973 to include an adult subscription season with emphasis on new Canadian works. ATP operated at the Canmore Opera House in Heritage Park until 1984, when it moved to the Martha Cohen Theatre in the Calgary Centre for Performing Arts. In 1987 it began PlayRites, a mid-winter festival of new works by Canadian playwrights.

Connolly, eds. -- Toronto : Oxford University Press, 1989, p. 12-13.
