GeriActors Theatre

GeriActors Theatre is an intergenerational theatre company based in Amiskwacîwâskahikan (Edmonton). Our mission is to develop performer-created theatre and performance-based activities that are of high quality and that foster positive intergenerational interaction and authentic views of aging.Adhering to the principles of creative aging, we believe that seniors' engagement in the arts at a level of comparative mastery leads to significant health benefits, an overall sense of well-being, and a marked increase in social and civic engagement. Our programs seek to challenge stereotypes, promote authentic views on aging, and bring people together to share in meaningful discussions about lived experiences.
