Will Brooks to Adjudicate TheatreFest

Apr 8, 2017 | 10:02 AM

Theatre Saskatchewan are pleased to announce the adjudicator for TheatreFest 2017 being held in North Battleford and hosted by Battlefords Community Players. 

Will Brooks, Artistic Producer of Shakespeare on the Saskatchewan will be our adjudicator.  Will hails from Regina and now is settled on a hobby farm just outside of Saskatoon with his family,

As current Artistic Producer of Shakespeare on the Saskatchewan, Will’s work was seen recently as director of A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Romeo and Juliet and Othello.  Will also had a number of appearances onstage from 2000 through 2007 with the same company as well as many others in the province. With a varied career which has involved virtually every aspect of theatre, Will is currently focused on producing and directing – with the actor in him still jumping on stage on occasion.  His work as director, actor, designer, and dramaturge has been seen around Saskatchewan at Persephone, Dancing Sky Theatre, a number of Live Five Companies, and various independent productions.

Will spent seven great years at Persephone Theatre before having the honour to join the festival.  Will’s work at Persephone focused on youth programming with responsibility for the provincial youth tour, the youth presentation series and the theatre school. 

Will is a proud advocate of this great province and the artistic work that happens in it.  He is excited that Theatre Sask has invited him to come and enjoy all of the work happening at this festival and he looks forward to working with everyone.
