(Technical Director & Collaborator)

In 2016, project founders Ker Wells and Megan Stewart asked me to come to New Glasgow, PEI and collaborate on the River Clyde Pageant. I stayed with the pageant as the Technical Director until 2019, and have remained an avid supporter since. Like many pageant collaborators my jobs were wide ranging: from establishing walkie talkie protocols, to sewing trout hats, to making road safety plans, to serving drinks at the after party.

“The River Clyde Pageant is a spectacular outdoor performance in New Glasgow, Prince Edward Island, that unites community members, professional and emerging artists in its creation and presentation. Each summer’s Pageant features giant puppets, stilt-walkers, musicians and performers of all ages. The Pageant celebrates a vital Island community and the river that has defined and sustained it for over 200 years; promoting values of environmental stewardship, civic practice, and artistic bravery.”

'Brief Encounters' is an interdisciplinary event that pairs twelve unique artists into six duets and gives them two weeks to create a short work. The event is produced by the Tomorrow Collective. These pictures were taken at several events between 2009-2011 at Performance Works in Vancouver, BC.
