Description

The Centre for Indigenous Theatre is a training institution with a mandate to develop Native theatre professionals. In 1974, the late James Buller founded Native Theatre School. This original four-week program was created based on his belief that with a viable Aboriginal theatre school in place Aboriginal actors, playwrights and directors would have a forum for exploration and exchange, and that the results of this exchange would have a measurable impact on the Aboriginal Theatre community. In 1994, The Centre for Indigenous Theatre was born and in 1998, the program expanded to include a one-year, full time, post-secondary training program. Today, CIT offers a Full-Time, three-year program and two introductory summer programs that bring together classical theatre training and traditional teachings to support and enrich our voices through, self-exploration, song, story and performance.
