Hadestown: Teen Edition

Following two intertwining love stories – that of young dreamers Orpheus and Eurydice, and that of immortal King Hades and Lady Persephone – Hadestown invites audiences on a hell-raising journey to the underworld and back in this full-length Teen Edition of Anaïs Mitchell’s haunting, jazz-inflected folk opera.

The production then received its Canadian premiere at Edmonton’s Citadel Theatre in 2017. Join the Scona Theatre Co. this season at the Timms April 22-26, 2025 as it follows Orpheus’ mythical quest to overcome Hades and regain the favor of his one true love, Eurydice.

2025 Scona Initiative

We are very excited to announce our partner organization for the 2025 Scona Initiative: Sombrilla. The current school system only allows for youth to attain a grade 6 education. This year, we will be supporting young people and adults who wish to continue and/or upgrade their level of education from grade 6 to a grade 9 level.

Sombrilla will be using the funds we raise this year to expand their Computer Assisted Learning [CAL] Program which will service and provide affordable and flexible access to learning to both youth and adults in rural Honduran Communities

We are excited to be able to make a difference in the education of the Honduran people who live in rural communities and provide a pathway to break through a poverty barrier created by low levels of literacy in the population.
There are many ways to get involved!
- Donate to our silent auction by contributing items by E-mailing sconamission@gmail.com
- Support the initiative financially by donating on our online zeffy platform!
- Contact our event coordinators Alvin Lee & Taylor Mattern if you have any questions!
- Volunteer at the actual event with family and Scona Friends! -- More information to come on Schoolzone shortly!

MESSAGE FROM OUR PRINCIPAL

Welcome,
The 2024-2025 school year will be Strathcona's 117th year of operation.  Throughout the years we have always been known for excellence in all that we do.  At Strathcona we seek to live our school motto "As One Who Serves."   We seek to be a welcoming community that works together to help students reach their potential. We strongly believe that "Through These Halls Walk Champions" not just in athletics, but more importantly in academics, languages, community building, arts, drama and so much more.  We look forward to working with you this coming school year.
Best regards,
Hans Van Ginhoven
