2025 Soulpepper Academy: First Semester
Guided through this first-term practice of “Decolonial Performance Praxis and Biomyth Making” by the powerfully affirming d’bi.young anitafrika, five new Academy artists began to craft remarkable, defiant, charming, sorrowful, fantastical pieces of their lives and imaginations to share with their community.

Personal note: I love theatre stills. It means I get to be in spaces where one’s thoughts, feelings, and defining experiences are given a new shape to be shared where something once didn’t exist before. Play on. ✨
