Medusa's Children -- postponed /
The Canada Council-funded production of Medusa’s Children, which I have been hired to direct, will be postponed.
I can’t wait to begin to work on this exciting premiere! The opera is a fascinating exploration of toxic masculinity, with music by Colin McMahon and words by Charlie Petch. The piece is produced by OperaQ, a queer opera company in Toronto.

I had a lot of fun working with Stephen Sheahan and David Moorhouse on a shoot for Steve’s latest collection! Pics to come soon.
Here’s a link to the collection and some of Steve’s work!

disposable no. 2 /
I’ve been thinking a lot lately about the relationship between the ephemeral and the disposable. How can we make theatre that more thoroughly highlights the difference between these two things, and that illuminates the disastrous effects of that which is disposable? I don’t have anything resembling an answer yet, but maybe some of the theatre I make soon will help me sort through the muck.

I just uploaded some photos from Love and Info and the ill-fated Ghosting production. So many complicated memories from both of those shows, but it’s a pleasure to look at the beautiful work of Dahlia Katz and be reminded of some good times.
