Adrienne Wong and JD Derbyshire, collaborators and mentors, discuss their role in the Theatre Alberta Lab. They reflect on their experience working with Jesse and Andrés and processing the design of the Engagement Lab. They describe themselves as "spotters on the trampoline," providing support and guidance while allowing the participants to create and explore. They also reflect on the shifts and changes that occurred throughout the lab and how it affected the participants' experience. 

The Engagement Lab Podcast is possible with the initial support from three local foundations to transition our ALL IN Program to the 35//50 initiative and The Engagement Lab, the foundations were The Edmonton Community Foundation, Calgary Foundation, and the Rozsa Foundation.

We’re thrilled to announce that The Engagement Lab is supported by both Alberta’s Ministry of Culture: Community Initiatives Program and the Canada Council for the Arts. Theatre Alberta is grateful to our operating funders, the Alberta Foundation for the Arts, the Edmonton Arts Council, and Calgary Arts Development.
