Are you ready to bring the thrills, chills, and theatrical magic to life this fall? Fort Edmonton Park is looking for energetic and passionate individuals to join our team for DARK, Edmonton's premier Halloween festival. This is your chance to step into the spotlight, showcase your performance skills, and create unforgettable, safe, and world-class entertainment experiences for our community.

As a Scare Actor, you will serve as a primary facilitator of immersive guest experiences within our fall seasonal attraction. You will execute high-quality, theatrical performances that maintain character narrative and atmosphere. On a nightly basis, you will transform into a designated character using costumes, makeup, or prosthetics to interact with visitors through scripted and improvisational "scare" techniques. Beyond acting, you will play a vital role in managing guest flow and strictly adhering to safety and operational protocols to ensure the entertainment environment remains secure and engaging. This frontline service role is perfect for collaborative performers who thrive in a highly structured, dynamic, and fast-paced team environment.

Skills required for success:

Proven experience with theatrical performance, live acting, or improvisational performance
Strong improvisational skills and the ability to maintain character integrity under various conditions
Excellent situational awareness and the ability to read crowd dynamics quickly
Exceptional verbal and non-verbal communication skills
Ability to follow complex artistic direction and safety protocols simultaneously
High physical stamina and resilience required for repetitive physical movements and vocal work
Alignment to our Cultural Commitments and Leadership Competencies (https://bit.ly/4brRrXm)
Embracing a culture of equity, diversity, reconciliation and inclusion

Conditions of Employment:

Ability to work a flexible schedule, including evenings, weekends, and holidays
Ability to meet the physical demands of the role, which include standing, walking, stretching, and performing repetitive movements for extended periods in DARK environments.

Work Environment:

This position operates in a dynamic, highly structured nighttime festival environment within Fort Edmonton Park
