Danielle Laurin

Danielle is a stage manager and theatre artist based in Tiohtia:ke/Montreal. She got her start in professional theatre as an assistant costume designer and assistant director while working towards her BFA in Design for the Theatre at Concordia University.

She later apprenticed in stage management and theatre design at the Portland Playhouse in Portland, Oregon, where she fell in love with stage management as a craft, and as an approach to life in general. She earned her MFA in Stage Management from Virginia Tech in Blacksburg, Virginia, and interned at the Public Theatre in New York, before returning to Canada.

She has been working as a stage manager in Montreal since 2017, and has been a member of Canadian Actors’ Equity Association since 2018. She is currently the Managing Producer at Imago Theatre. Dani served on the Montreal English Theatre Awards Committee as a jury liaison from 2019 to 2024, and is so grateful to be a part of the Montreal theatre community, where she has had the pleasure of working with a variety of companies including The Segal Centre for the Performing Arts, Geordie Theatre, Repercussion Theatre, Porte Parole, Centaur Theatre, and Tableau D’Hôte.
