Two faculty members from MacEwan’s Music Theatre Performance Program join us to talk about resilience and caring for ourselves and others. Coordinator Dawn Sadoway is a professional singer, actor, and voice teacher, and professor Leigh Rivenbark is a professional film and theatre director and former Artistic Producer of Theatre New Brunswick. They recently presented their research on resilience building in theatre at the peer-reviewed Voice and Speech Trainers Association’s international conference in August, 2021, and they have already seen promising results in instituting resilience-building techniques into their programming here at MacEwan. If you’re interested in learning more about resilience and resilience building, Leigh and Dawn would be happy to send you all those long lists we talked about, so feel free to send them an email!Item Research recast(ed): S2E5 - Who they are, not who they will be, with Robyn Ayles and Heather Fitzsimmons Frey(2022) Ekelund, Brittany; Cave, Dylan; Ayles, Robyn; Fitzsimmons Frey, HeatherToday we sat down with research duo, Robyn Ayles and Dr. Heather Fitzsimmons Frey to talk about their collaboration with some very tiny researchers. We talk about their interactive theatre project, where children are invited to be co-researchers and guide, transform and participate with the experience. This project tugs at the heartstrings, as we explore the importance of meeting kids where they’re at and considering them for who they are, not just who they are going to be. All of this conversation is seen through the lens of the Urban Wildlife project.
