A busy spring, summer on the coast, exciting projects on the horizon.

Recently:

- Search and Destroy. A 1/2 hour Hulu network pilot for the new Carrie Brownstein (Portlandia) series. This smart, edgy show, based on her novel 'Hunger Makes Me a Modern Girl' is set in Portland amidst the west coast punk music scene of the late 90's. Yeah - Ms. Brownstein rocks it. Proud to be a part of this one.

- LEAP Playwriting Intensive. Workshopping new plays by young writers. These fearless, young voices are the future of Canadian theatre. Names to watch out for.

- More audiobook narration. Madeleine Thien's Certainty is a formidable novel by a seasoned author. Available for download on Amazon.

- On faculty at On The Mic studios, teaching Intro to Acting for Voice-Over. An impressive, state-of-the-art facility in Gastown, entirely dedicated to VO training. Classes ongoing.

Upcoming:

- 2 shows at the Stanley Theatre next season: A Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time by Mark Haddon & Simon Stephens, directed by incoming artistic director Ashlie Corcoran; The Orchard (After Chekhov) by Sarena Parmar, directed by Jovanni Sy - currently playing at The Shaw Festival.

Notable:

Organic gardening and beekeeping at Cedar Cottage Community Garden. Our beautiful garden is celebrating it's 10th anniversary of volunteer driven sustainable growing. On July 21, 2018, we will be hosting a pop-up long table community dinner. Laara will chef! - with plenty of help from our members. Culled mostly from our own gardens - this communal meal will be a gorgeous evening of food, wine, and stories. Under the stars, in our own back yard. Please join us. Tickets available through Eventbrite.
