What a TOTAL HONOUR to be named among these artists! I’m bursting with gratitude & glee, & am OVER THE MOON for the beautiful Red Velvet team which leads the General Theatre category with 6 noms!!! 👏👏👏 Thank you TAPA, DoraMavorMooreAwards & Crow's Theatre for producing! 🤸🏼♀️🌓♥️🎭

I was SPOILED by the bounty Shaw Festival! 5 shows (6 really cause I saw #blithespirit 2x) in as many days. The stories continue to bloom inside me, revealing new layers days later, & have inspired buds of ideas to open within. Thank you dear friends for the enlivening work!


Bravooooo Toronto!!! Bravoooo OLIVIAAAAAA!!! Olivia Chow ✨✨✨

Today, I spoke with Olivia Chow. She was my first mentor in politics. She taught me that a leader is someone who leads with both compassion & strength. I'm excited to work with her to make Toronto a city that cares - a city where everyone belongs & everyone can afford to live.

WHAT A NIGHT celebrating #torontotheatre at the 43rd annual #DoraAwards! Especially thrilled for Cherissa Richards for winning Outstanding Director & our show #RedVelvet, a Crow's Theatre production, for winning Outstanding Production (both in General Division). Thank you TAPA!



My brilliant pal Starr Domingue’s off to the Edinburgh Fringe - modelling for us all how to keep a promise to yourself! I was lucky to be in Starr’s orbit this past November when she dreamed out loud about doing this & I’m in AWE she made it happen 8 months later! Go girl GO!!✨

That’s a wrap on the audiobook version of Chantel Guertin’s “It Happened One Christmas!” ‘Twas merrymaking indeed to work with the brill teams PenguinRandomHouseCA & Audio Z, and wonderful director Brenley Charkow to bring this ♥️-warming story to life for listeners 🎄✨📖🎧
