Special Announcements
We would like to extend a warm welcome to Marcel Stewart, our new Artistic Director! We are so excited for you to join the team. We know you’re going to be a valuable asset to our organization and can’t wait to see what you accomplish at b current!
To learn more about Marcel, here is his bio:
Marcel is a father, award-winning theatre maker, director, writer, educator, and arts administrator who serves as an Associate Artist for FOLDA (Festival of Live Digital Art). Marcel's curiosity about history and lineage - beyond the context of colonialism - is at the basis of his artistic practice. He holds a degree in Dramatic Arts from Brock University, was a member of the Soulpepper Academy, and completed the Theatre Enhancement Program (as a Directing Foreman) through Factory Theatre. Marcel often returns to the questions: Who am I? How am I? How did I get here? Who have I lost? What is my purpose?
Welcome, Marcel!
