A 2025 Year in Review of Boundary-Pushing Theatre
2025 was a year of global engagement, creative boundary-pushing, and significant new work development across Canada, Asia, and Europe. I was thrilled to play a part in successfully launching vital transnational projects, facilitated new play and translation development, and fostered cross-cultural exchange.

From Behind the Table: General Auditions
“The General Audition“
I never expect anyone to be brilliant in an audition. It is almost an impossibility. Was anyone ever brilliant while acting with a chair? What I do hope to find someone who seems capable and someone with whom I might want to spend four weeks in a rehearsal hall” – Michael Shamata, Artistic Director of The Belfry Theatre, (Victoria)
From Behind the Table: The General Auditions Part 3 – Monologue Choices and Presentation
“Even though it may be a general audition the theatre will probably be looking to cast the season they’ve announced. If there’s something the actor thinks they’re appropriate for they should attempt to do everything possible to win the role by tailoring the choice of monologue to the role they think they’re right for.” – George Pothitos, Artistic Director of Neptune Theatre (Halifax)
