Why did you join Drama Society ?
​I joined the Drama Society because I wanted to be part of a creative and supportive community that shares my love for theatre. It’s a space where I can collaborate with others, learn new things, and bring stories to life on stage. Being part of the society has helped me grow both as an artist and as a person, and it’s one of the most fulfilling parts of my time at UTSC.
What are you looking forward to most this year?
I’m most looking forward to creating new work with the amazing community in the Drama Society this year. I’m excited to see fresh ideas come to life on stage, support student-led projects, and keep building an environment where everyone feels inspired to express themselves and take creative risks.
What is your most memorable moment in Theatre?
My most memorable moment in theatre was directing my first play. Seeing the cast bring the story to life after weeks of rehearsals was incredibly rewarding. Watching the audience react, laugh, and connect with the performance reminded me why I fell in love with theatre in the first place, it’s all about the shared experience and the magic that happens when creativity, collaboration, and humanness come together.
What is the best play or musical you have watched and why?
The best play I’ve watched is "King Gilgamesh". I loved how it brought an ancient story to life in conjunction with modern, human, and the performers' own stories with powerful performances and stunning visuals and minimal tech. It was emotional, exciting, and reminded me why I love theatre so much.
