Across artistic disciplines, one thing brings Dawn‘s practice together: the Art of Story.
Story has the ability to bring people together. Shared experience creates empathy, understanding and transformation. Dawn is passionate about sharing stories that illuminate the experience of otherness, and has worked extensively with marginalised communities through her practice to bring to light stories that are unheard or misunderstood.
Dawn has a BA in Drama from the University of Toronto and a MFA in Theatre Studies from the University of Calgary. She has continued her skill development through ongoing classes and training and is currently a student of the Pro Actors Lab.
