Hey Friends.
Cheers for stopping by.
No real news to share re: touring plans for Jake’s Gift - all performing arts venues in Canada are still closed. Hope to have news soon.
In the meantime, in other news I am writing a new show, and we are helping take care of the beautiful Sunset Theatre. While we are unable to tour, I’ve been shifting my focus towards new work, grant writing and helping build a safe and inviting space for other artists to come and create.
The Exploration Series - created by Sunset Theatre Artistic Director, Karen Jeffery, was started in 2006, and it was actually the project that gave me a deadline to write Jake’s Gift.
In 2021 we will host 41 Canadian artists to come and create new work. We’ll be able to do this because of the generous funding received from the BC Arts Council, Dept. of Canadian Heritage and we hope to receive support from Canada Council of the Arts as well.

More soon.
