Compass Points seeks National Planning Committee
Compass Points is putting a call out to all conservatory, college, and university-level theatre students and recently graduated emerging artists. We are currently developing a National Planning Committee to help guide the 2010 edition of Compass Points Student & Emerging Artist Symposium. We are looking for dynamic students and emerging artists looking to share their ideas on current issues of concern to young artists seeking to navigate the gap between student life and professional practice. We are currently looking for one representative from each province and territory or region. For more information on how to join please contact Liz Truchanowicz at compasspoints@magneticnorthfestival.ca
Held during the Magnetic North Theatre Festival, the Compass Points Symposium is a gathering of students and emerging artists from across the country which helps navigate the Festival and offers a firsthand introduction to the professional theatre industry. Organized by students and emerging artists from across the nation, Compass Points is a week-long event consisting of workshops, panel discussions, and social events which inspire participants to chart their own course in Canadian Theatre. We welcome students and artists from all theatre disciplines including but not limited to acting, directing, playwriting, design, technical production, and arts management.
