Our values are playfulness, accessibility, artistic integrity, empathy, mentorship and community Our Story Carousel Theatre for Young People (CTYP) has been creating theatre for young people since 1976. Located on Granville Island in the heart of Vancouver, CTYP is Vancouver’s professional mainstage TYA Company. We are a gathering place for artists, young people and families to embark on a journey where imagination, a dash of magic, and an abundance of play are the recipe for a theatrical adventure that has lasting impact. Our vision: to empower young people through the magic of theatre. Under the vision of Artistic Director Carole Higgins, CTYP stages vibrant stories that engage young people from the beginning of their development and continues to share stories that challenge young people through their formative years, empowering young people to become agents of positive change. Carole’s vision Stages of Play encompasses a full season that celebrates stories that explore rites of passage through our Family Stage at the Waterfront Theatre, explores Shakespeare’s canon through a contemporary lens every summer with our Teen Shakespeare Stage, and explores original Canadian creations for our BEE Stage. Young People are not simply audience members at CTYP; they are active participants at the very centre of all that we do. CTYP’s energetic year-round drama school teaches young people ages 3-17 to express their creativity and individuality through the theatrical form. Our drama school embraces CTYP’s organization’s core values, and is a central part of our mission to empower young people. Each year 35 000+ young people, educators and families attend CTYP’s effervescent theatrical experiences. Our playful approach to creation and collaboration, unwavering commitment to outstanding production values and exuberant attentiveness to mentoring emerging theatre artists are key principals of our artistic practice. A testament to the artistic quality of the productions we create, CTYP’s pursuit of excellence has been recognized with 87 Jessie nominations and 13 awards in the last ten years. In 2018, CTYP teamed with Boca Del Lupo to cofound the Granville Island Theatre District, with the shared vision to create a robust, diverse, theatre ecology in the heart of Vancouver. The GITD oversees three performance venues on Granville Island, with CTYP as artistic stewards of the Waterfront Theatre, which is now Vancouver’s first performance venue dedicated to youth and family programming. carouseltheatre.ca Artistic Director’s Message I am thrilled to welcome Raven Spirit Dance and their beautiful, thought-provoking story Salmon Girl to the CTYP Season and stage. This story explores themes and issues are so important for all of us to consider right now as we learn how crucial salmon are to the BC ecosystem, see how the beautiful Southern resident Killer Whales are struggling, and how plastic and garbage are piling up in the oceans and on land. Through Marjorie’s story we see the importance of balance, respect and moderation, and how intertwined human actions are with the health of our planet and the many beautiful residents who share the waters, the sky and the land. I hope this story inspires you and your family to think about how you can make changes in your daily life and routines to help take better care of our planet. Together we can all make a difference.

A story close to my heart, it tells a tale of rivers, oceans, salmon and humans and how we are all beautifully interconnected. Our natural world is a source of great learning and reflection. Indigenous traditional stories encompass these teachings so as humans we can be in balance with our environment and act with honour and respect. It has been a lovely journey to this point and I am looking forward to what is next around the riverbend. Michelle Olson Director/Writer’s Notes When Artistic Director Michelle Olson asked me what I would like to write about I knew right away. I remember saying to her, “We all know the stories about Ravens and Bears. They’re always in the limelight. Let’s tell the traditional stories about Salmon.” We decided to create a contemporary play based on traditional stories we grew up with. Michelle and I exchanged the stories that we knew and then decided to do some more research from both our territories. Michelle is from the Tr’ondek Hwech’in Nation in the Yukon and I’m from the Musqueam Nation here in Vancouver. I grew up fishing on the Staulo river. I’m a sherman’s daughter. Salmon are integral to our communities and have been for thousands of years. Salmon Girl was created out of the strong desire to share the important teachings passed on through storytelling and to protect and care for our environment and the salmon runs. My grandmother used to tell my sister and I traditional stories when we were young. It was a special time that we spent with her. We would sit at my Grandmother’s feet and she would tell us stories that her Great-grandmother told her. In keeping with that tradition, we share Salmon Girl with you. Enjoy!

Sitting by a river is a girl called Margie who is fishing and throws her plastic food wrapper into the water. Grandmother River says she was once clean and bountiful, and decides Margie must learn from her, so pulls Margie into the water transforming her into a sockeye salmon. Once in the water, Margie meets another salmon called Staqwi. They are both confused by this sudden transformation, and Margie is frustrated because she can’t swim very well in her new body. In order to get back to her village she must swim upriver, against the force of the water that is pushing them downriver and away from home. Staqwi tries to help Margie become a better swimmer but it’s very difficult. They stop to eat, and Staqwi points out that sometimes humans can be too greedy when fishing from the water. Two mink called Moxy and Ceciqen bump into Margie and learn about her struggle to get home. Their advice is to swim to the ocean to practice and become a stronger swimmer, and they agree to help her learn. As they enter the ocean a large school of fish greet them with warnings about the ocean where there are traps and nets, big boats, and killer whales. Margie and her new friends practice swimming together and come into a floating mass of plastic bags where Margie gets trapped. They realize Moxy is lost. Staqwi goes to eat some floating plankton, but Ceciqen stops him because it’s really just small particles of plastic floating in the water. Soon, Margie frees herself and Moxy returns. Ceciqen tells every one of the giant plastic patch of human trash that ends up in the water.

  • Review Dean’S Message
    SCHOOL OF BUSINESS YEAR IN REVIEW DEAN’S MESSAGE QSB’s Year in Review is more than just a chance to look back on the highlights of the previous 12 months. Each year since 2007, we have also shared details of financial support for the school, as well as donor vignettes that highlight the power of alumni giving. The 2013-2014 Year in Review includes another strong list of accomplishments to reflect on. You will also see that we have entered the final phase of our fundraising campaign. Thanks to the generosity of QSB’s alumni and friends, the “Invest in QSB” campaign has now reached $51 million of its goal of $65 million. Funds raised are being directed toward four strategic priorities: increasing student diversity in the Commerce program; establishing more scholarships for the full-time MBA program; attracting and retaining the best faculty; and further developing innovative teaching methods. I’m particularly excited about this last initiative, which will enable us to revolutionize a traditional teaching tool: the case study. The Living Case initiative was developed in response to a growing student demand for technology-based learning and classroom discussions that focus on current, real-time events, driven by easy and immediate access to information. Living cases build on the latest market developments, drawing on SEC filings, analyst and news reports, social media and company information, to foster an enhanced understanding of strategic and operational decision-making and integration of activities across entire business systems. The Living Case initiative is just one of the ways we are transforming the traditional classroom into a dynamic learning environment to provide our students with unparalleled opportunities.

Synopsis: Down River is the emotionally stirring story of three young women teetering on the edge between creative breakthroughs and personal breakdowns, and their connection with the older woman they rely on for guidance, support and inspiration. Fawn (Gabrielle Miller) is an in-demand but insecure actress. While striving to honour her religious beliefs, she battles the uncertainty between living out her career opportunities and settling down to begin a family with the man she loves (Peter Flemming). Aki (Jennifer Spence) is a dynamic abstract artist who hides under her paint-stained hoodie. She has talent, but with a widowed father (Hiro Kanagawa) whose traditional values constantly undermine her, not to mention her struggle with her own crippling shyness, she finds herself resorting to drastic measures to make an impact on an art dealer (Brian Markinson). Harper (Colleen Rennison) is a gifted but self- destructive rock singer. Desperately trying to fill the void, she careens happily between drugs, a sugar daddy (Teach Grant) and “the one that got away” (Ali Liebert).
