Also on the docket is an encore presentation of Tanisha’s Directed By session; The Stage Is Yours — a traditional open stage for singers, instrumentalists, songwriters and poets; Hang, an introductory meet & greet with us for new production managers/designers/stage managers who fall under our mandate; the very first in-person PepperPot gathering for theatre students of colour, and more… Keep your ears to the ground for all of the info, and join us next June!
Recent graduates who fall under our mandate… our GRADually workshop returns for the third consecutive year! Being fresh out of theatre training can be daunting. You've finished your program and are ready to start a career — but you don't know many folks in the business, or whom you even need to know. How does a new grad build their network and increase their knowledge? GRADually! We love being introduced to new theatremakers. Come and tell us who you are, what you've done, what you're into and what your goals are. We’ll happily share helpful info and hints!
