It has been a very busy summer! I’ve been enjoying the final few months of my MBA-SEE work term before I graduate this fall. I’ve been fortunate to do some really interesting non-theatre work on the redesign of a scholarship program serving low-income youth in St. John’s. I also managed to escape to Prince Edward County for a little bit to work with County Stage and play three roles in the spy-clown-comedy The 39 Steps, directed by the amazing Monica Dottor. It was a lot of fun to play with a team of tremendous creators and performers.
I’m also preparing to step into a new role: this fall I will begin a three-year commitment as an assistant professor in York University’s School of Art, Music, Theatre and Design. I’ll be teaching acting and creation and working with a team of incredible fellow educators. This is a big change for me, which comes with a decent amount of trepidation but also so much excitement!
