Beyond Representation: Cultural Diversity as Theatrical Practice

Part of Modern Times Stage Company’s Postmarginal project, this three day symposium explores how cultural diversity can become completely integrated into theatre creation. What creative opportunities would be possible if theatre artists took advantage of the diverse cultural forms and processes that are available in Canada’s theatrical communities to explore new theatrical forms?

Opening reception and keynote address by Donna-Michelle St. Bernard on Sunday April 9 (Ada Slaight Hall), followed by two days of panels include: Directing Across Difference, Beyond Accents, The Critical Difference and a roundtable on gender fluidity (Aki Studio).
