"Welcome to our Associate Artists in the English Section! In collaboration with program directors and teaching teams, these gifted and experienced artists provide a wide range of expertise and insight for NTS students across all the theatre disciplines.".

"We’ve seen in recent weeks and months that some of our Canadian theatre institutions still have a lot of work to do in this area, and NTS isn’t exempt from that. I’m happy to see that NTS as taken great steps to address some of the concerns that have been brought to its attention recently".

The first English section meeting of the year was held – on Zoom, of course. This meeting brings together all students from all professional training programs in the English section, as well as program directors, associate artists and resident artists. As per tradition for a few years now, we asked returning students to bestow advice upon first-year students. Here is a snippet of what they had to say.

''It means the world to us to be able to open the school to you and to support you in pursuing your love of theatre.

That’s why we’re here. You’re why we’re here. We recognize that these times are indescribably difficult and that this deeply affects each and every one of you. We’re here to support you, to listen and to learn alongside you as we chart this complex path together.''

I would like to do a Facebook Live through my theatre company, TODOS Productions, and talk about the development of my new play Juan, Juana, G'wan-Neetah. In the Facebook Live, I will talk about my process as a writer, how I deal with writer's block, and I will read some scenes of the scenes that I have written in the past couple of months and talk about where I'd like to go with it next.
