NTS Drama Fest

NTS DramaFest is a platform for young people to exercise their empathy, their listening skills, their sense of community, to have conversations about the complexity of the world. It is a place to safely explore self-expression, trust and friendship.

The strength of the National Theatre School DramaFest is rooted in its many dedicated teachers and community members across the Province. They work to ensure that each District Festival is truly a celebration of theatre in their local community.

More than 12,000 students and their dedicated teachers are involved annually in the celebrations, garnering some 500 Awards. These include up to four (4) $3000 Ken & Ann Watts Memorial Foundation Scholarships and up to four (4) $1500 Bursaries awarded to graduating students pursuing a career in the performing arts.
