together, we’ll be creating & workshopping intermedial design prototypes for my play, JANE. i mean, what can i say!!!! it’s not everyday you get to figure out how to stage VR deepfake porn at a theatre you’ve dreamed of working with since you started writing plays 7 years ago!!
A silhouetted figure stands between two projection screens, hung in a pitch black space. The screens have an ambiguous tree-like form projected onto them.
A silhouette of a very large hand reaching out to a much smaller person sitting down and extending their arm upwards to meet it.
An actor stands in front of a screen with projected “code” text on his body and on the screen. The rest of the room is pitch black, save for one solitary light on the right side and the ambiguous bodies of two other actors crouching on either side of him.

Very proud of my former student @bryn_kennedy who is the assistant director of #Hamlet at @stratfest this season. I taught this play almost every year for decades, so it's a favourite. Can't wait to see this version. stratfordfestival.ca/WhatsOn/PlaysA

Remind me again why we can’t abolish the police because they are so vital for the public’s safety that we can’t possibly do without them? Or is this just a one time friends n family policy for the protestors?

Hey! Look! Did you see that massively huge convoy of health workers who has gone in to work each & every day to provide healthcare for vulnerable people amidst staffing shortages, snowstorms & a raging pandemic? Yeah...shoutout to that convoy. That convoy is the best. 🙌🏾
