"Shared experience in real time of an act of creation, that may be scored and designed but is always different, is certainly the obvious strength of the theatre. Socially, politically, theatre has never been so important and vital to our understanding of ourselves and the world."
Willem Dafoe, World Theatre Message (today, Mar 27 2026)

Are you available to join me on March 28th at 2pm to build a play together? I will perform in the Great Canadian Theatre Company's production of BL_NK by playwright, Nassim Soleimanpour. I honestly can't tell you more because, well, that's all I know: each performer walks on the stage and opens a script we've never seen before. Then you (audience) and I fill in the *blanks* to create a story together. This is going to be so fun and it would be wonderful to have you with me.

"12 (2.0) is much more than a cri de coeur. This completely bilingual (with interweaved translation) production is complex, complicated, sophisticated and terrifying. But it’s also leavened with some humour and energetic choreography. The content mixes the emotional and the factual. Eleven voices coordinate to deliver a cornucopia of information and heartfelt reactions." --apt 613 review, author Brian Carroll
