As the Youth and Performing Arts program of the Philippine Festival Council of Alberta, we aim to produce bold, contemporary work that spans genres and stories not to define what Filipino stories are, but to change who gets to stand at the centre of the work.We believe representation is not limited to subject matter. It lives in casting, creative leadership, rehearsal rooms, decision making tables, and who is trusted to carry a story. By prioritizing Filipino-Canadian artists in these spaces, FlipSide expands the theatre landscape rather than narrowing it, offering work that invites broader audiences while ensuring Filipino-Canadian talent is no longer invisible within the industry.FlipSide exists to change the narrative by flipping it - turning a history of erasure into one of visibility, excellence, and possibility, and proving that when space is claimed with intention, everyone benefits.Our PurposeFlipSide envisions a vibrant home for Filipino-Canadian creativity, a place where artists thrive, stories are celebrated, and audiences see themselves reflected onstage. We aim to become a cornerstone in the Calgary arts scene, uniting our community through bold, innovative, and heart-forward theatre that honours our heritage and shapes the future of Canadian arts." } ] } ] ```
