In our 2023-2024 fiscal year Theatre Replacement was able to run all of our ongoing programs for and with the community. In July 2023 our PantoLand and PantoTown camps were able to run in full for the first time since the pandemic welcoming over 80 children between the ages of 5 and 13 to play and create including 20 children attending in fully subsidized scholarship spots through a partnership with the Vancouver School Board and support from The Youssef-Warren Foundation. Our final iteration of the biennial New Aesthetics Performance Intensive also ran in July 2023. It has been a beloved program over many summers and the company is now pivoting to offer a new summer program for artists in the coming years. TR presented the 11th annual East Van Panto over the 2023 holiday season. This year's production East Van Panto: Beauty and the Beast presented by The Cultch welcomed over 16 000 audience members over seven weeks and over 2 000 free and subsidized tickets were given away through the Cultch Connects program. The production was once again filmed and distributed for in-home viewing as well. PushOFF our annual festival of contemporary performance works by Vancouver and Canadian artists was re-named HOLD ON LET GO marking the growth and evolution of the program over the last number of years. The program ran for two weeks for the very first time and welcomed the most audience ever to the Russian Hall with 1 082 attendees and 271 free tickets/passes distributed. 28 artists/companies were presented at the festival.
