About me
Dani Driusso is an educator and team lead with Quest Theatre, a process-based Theatre Education company out of Calgary that brings the magic of theatre into classrooms all over Alberta through their Artist In School program. Quest theatre helps students explore who they are, discover the world around them and build the kind of world they want to live in through theatre education. Outside of Quest Theatre’s Artist In School Program Dani is an author, speaker, and educator with more than 10+ years of experience in voice and performance. Her focus is to create compassionate environments that allow for courageous learning. With a smile on her face (and a laugh you can probably hear from down the hall), Dani loves to bring fun and immersive experiences to each classroom, which empowers students to utilize their voice and ideas. Dani can be found speaking at events across Canada to emerging leaders, highlighting topics of Identity, confidence and the power of unleashing our voice. She has spoken at events such as The Western Canadian Leadership Conference and The Great Canadian Woman Summit on the topics of identity, advocacy, communication and confidence among leaders. She has also worked with other non-profits such as SACHA to create compassionate communities with diverse populations.
