BLACK CANADIAN THEATRE LEADERSHIP: EMBRACING TRANSFORMATION AND ADAPTATION

When: Sept. 20, 2021 — 6:30 to 8 p.m. ET

An online discussion between Philip Akin and Mike Payette, moderated by Luke Reece.

The speakers and moderator, all Black Canadian theatre leaders, will reflect on changes in Canadian theatre in recent years, with a focus on the mandates of theatre organizations.

How have they approached season planning and programming within existing and evolving organizational mandates? Who’s coming to see their work, and how can programming bring in the audiences they intend to cultivate?
