This intensive three-week program allows up to 12 students to study with professional theatre artists who maintain high profile careers in the Canadian theatre industry. Past directors and workshop leaders have included company members from the Stratford Shakespeare Festival, Shaw Festival and Soulpepper Theatre Company.
