Our Story

ATCO Energy Theatre is back with an all new Super Power! show and its cast of heroes and villains. The evil super villains, Rocket Socket and Carmen Monoxide, return and are up to their same sneaky tricks! But our hero, the Blue Flame, has his own plan and invites Rocket Socket (Rocky) and Carmen onto his game show, Power Game with the Blue Flame! The Blue Flame tells Rocky and Carmen they will gain more power with every correct answer. And they do! The villains start feeling more powerful and are having fun without realizing they are teaching kids how to avoid their dangers. The Blue Flame, one of the Power Teams most popular super heroes, knows that when kids have “brain power” – they have what it takes to defeat the super villains.

This 45-minute musical, Power Game with the Blue Flame, is designed to help teach kids about natural gas, carbon monoxide and electricity and how to stay safe in and around their homes. They will learn how natural gas and electricity are made and how they travel and get to our homes. Throughout this edu-taining performance, students will be active participants using their own “brain power” to defeat the evil super villains. 

The ATCO Energy Theatre Super Power! shows are suitable for all elementary grades (kindergarten to Grade 6) and is specifically linked to the Alberta Education Grade 4 to 6 Science curriculum. There are several concepts and terms throughout the production, and we ask teachers to take time to review some of these terms before the show, especially the younger grades (ECS to Grade 3). We will provide a package of pre-show and post-show activities for teachers to do in their classrooms to enhance and extend the teachings presented in the show.

The ATCO Energy Theatre Super Power! shows are offered free of charge to schools in ATCO Gas and ATCO Electric service communities.
