Help Send Us to Berlin in March 2016!

We're going to the Berlin Improv Festival in March 2016!


We have been invited back to the Berlin Improv Festival! We leave March 11th and return on March 21st!

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for our students! While in Berlin, they will attend four days of improv workshops from two different instructors (not from the US or Canada), see festival performances, have a performance of our own on a festival stage and visit the historic sights of Berlin!
Thank-You Card from our Berlin 2014 Audience

No other high school has ever been invited to this festival - and we've been invited twice!

We need your help!

It costs a lot to send nine students and the chaperons to Berlin, and for some of our students this is a barrier. Our hope is to raise enough to reduce the per student cost from $3,290 to $2,000.

Here's how the $29,668 that the trip costs  breaks down:

  • $12,960 for return airfares for the students
  • $4,630 for return airfares/trip cancellation for the teacher, coach and female chaperon
  • $5,880 for 9 nights accommodation at the hostel
  • $2,520 for the festival (4 days of workshops and festival passes)
  • $650 for ground transportation in Berlin (bus & train/subway)
  • $3,028 for emergency, meals, and historic sights

To make this an affordable trip for our students, our goal is to raise $11,000!

Christmas Tree Chipping Fundraiser a success!

We are very excited to have been invited to attend the  Berlin Improv Festival   in March 2014!  This will be the first time ever in the festival’s 13 year history where they have hosted a high school improv group and we’re excited to be part of this unique event! Over their 10 day stay in Berlin, our students will participate in 4 days of workshops from two different instructors (not from the US or Canada) and will perform for a local school audience at the end. They also will be enjoying the festival performances and taking time to visit the historic city of Berlin itself. For a group of 16 students, the total cost is $32,000 CDN which includes their return airfare, ground transportation, accommodations, workshops and access to the festival. Our goal is to raise at least $10,000 to help reduce the per student cost to approximately $1,600. We spent this past weekend (January 4-5, 2014) collecting Christmas Trees as a fundraiser for the trip. Day #2 Crew: Conall, Fletcher, Jac
