Synopsis
The members of this year’s Academy were chosen through a rigorous selection process that focused on their skills as performer-creators who are invested in collaborative theatre-making as a pillar of their practice. These five dynamic artists are exploring artistic questions relevant to their practice, innovating together, and are poised to make meaningful contributions to the vitality of Soulpepper and to the future of the national theatre ecology. In their applications, each expressed reflections on wanting to grow, learn, and create in this particular moment of time, and a desire to change the industry with their inimitable perspectives – to think, and listen, and tell vital stories for a more vibrant future.
