Title: Crumbs
Storyline: Inspired by the true history of Alberta’s long-running Rat Control Program, Crumbs reimagines a fictional team of government rat-catchers tasked with keeping the province “rat-free.”
Set in a world where civic duty meets absurd bureaucracy, the show follows the crew’s daily grind as they patrol barns, alleys and fields to eliminate 'Public Enemy No. 1' - The Rat.
But as they pursue their quarry, their mission begins to unravel, revealing deeper questions about identity, pride and what it truly means to protect a province from itself.
Blending comedy with biting political satire, Crumbs exposes the cracks in the Alberta Advantage, showing how even the smallest pests can lead to the biggest existential questions.
Why apply: a paid opportunity to join a smart, funny and culturally sharp pilot production filmed in Calgary. Ideal for actors looking to take part in a distinctive Alberta-based project with social commentary and wit
