Surfacing: November 2009

Tuesday, November 17, 2009. Who Are These Sexist Arbiters of Culture? I was unable to access the comments section under this article posted (Cult)ure Magazine.

I'm afraid I find the point of this article to be rather arbitrary and I am wondering on what the conclusions about popularity and gender are based. Who are these arbiters of culture? If you want to talk about sexism and its effect on popular culture, then...

Feel free to add your own opinions in the comments section. Saint Carmen of the Main. The simple way to state my opinion of th...

Friday, April 16, 2010. 04/12/10: My Week in Review. 1 The Great Canadian Theatre Company unveiled their 2010-2011 season. And for once I am really excited about it. I had already read about the Jennifer Tremblay play "La Liste" when it was announced as part of the National Arts Centre's French Theatre season. 2 Crush Improv's Tuesday Make 'Em Ups. Why did Harper publicly state that the ethics commissioner and the RCMP were investigating Geurgis, but not give any reasons why? Coming up this weekend:.

Surfacing: May 2009

Tuesday, May 26, 2009. Wrote about the reasons people blog. His post was inspired by this entry. From "Life's a Pitch". I was particularly struck by this last paragraph:. I like to think that artists and industry folks with blogs constitute an important aspect of the broader cultural conversation, but I don't pretend it's journalism. Where would be be if all of our news came from people with "real"/"day" jobs? Someone has to be an unbiased reporter of the facts. Someone, I guess, with family money? The d...

PTC: December 2011

Wednesday, December 14, 2011. Wrapping up the Colony. In an all-too short period of time my play was ushered to a place it would not have reached otherwise. So I’m grateful, obviously, and am already crating plans to persuade these people into letting me come back for seconds. José Teodoro’s plays include The Tourist. Slowly, an exchange is taking place. His most recent play, MOTE. Was developed at the 2011 Playwrights Colony. José's new play MOTE. Walk a Mile Joe. Lucia's newest play Walk a Mile Joe.
