Organisateur

Grande Prairie Live Theatre and the Peace Region Independent Media Arts Organization

PRIMAA (pronounced "PRE-MA") is a non-profift founded in Grande Prairie to help support and develop independent media arts in the Peace Region. But it’s also a collaboration and networking group that develops and hosts regular workshops, provides a media equipment rental service, and are actively fundraising to grow our offerings and programming. Our base approach is borrowed from the Film and Video Arts Society of Alberta in Edmonton (http://www.fava.ca/), a not-for-profit, charitable society that exists to facilitate and support the creation and exhibition of independent film, video and media arts in Northern Alberta.

Several of our members are involved in commercial video production, narrative filmmaking, photography, and audio production, among others, and are industry-recognized or have productions showing at various film festivals or other high profile mediums.

(GPLT) This is the story of Grande Prairie Live Theatre. The story of how more than 4100 different actors, singers, dancers, directors, producers, stage managers, set designers, costume designers, seamstresses, makeup artists and many more behind-the-scenes contributors have entertained over 270,000 people over the past 56 years. Proudly we say “we’ve come a long way baby.”

We have done a wide selection of plays over many different genres; 304 productions over 54 years. Plus over 100 concerts! And festivals! And we incubated the prestigious Reel Shorts Film Festival for it’s first 10 years! We are incubating a new festival for youth – the Grande Prairie Children’s Festival. That is an amazing body of artistic work for an ever-changing group of creative and enthusiastic volunteers. We have grown as our region has grown. We have grown from 2 shows a year with 35 volunteers in 1963 to 84 nights of entertainment and nearly 300 volunteers in 2019.
