Before we announce the winners of the 2012 My Theatre Awards, we’re proud to present our annual Nominee Interview Series. A consistent standout of the Stratford musical ensemble (and one of our 2010 Performers of the Year), Kyle Golemba has always caught our attention not just for his strong voice and comedic chops, but because he’s […]
Before we announce the winners of the 2012 My Theatre Awards, we’re proud to present our annual Nominee Interview Series. Nominated for a second time in this category, the adorable Bethany Jillard (who was named one of our Performers of the Year last year) was the best thing about Stratford’s flagship 2012 production of Henry V, delivering a funny […]
Before we announce the winners of the 2012 My Theatre Awards, we’re proud to present our annual Nominee Interview Series. One of the most dynamic actresses in Canadian theatre, Laura Condlln has been making headlines for CanStage this off-season as the heartbreaking lead in 4.48 Psychosis.

This is a very weird year in Stratford because most of the really good productions are musicals. North America’s most prominent Shakespeare company usually does fine musicals and great Shakespeare, but Pirates of Penzance and Wanderlust are two of the only highlights of this season (Charlie Brown is good, but not a standout).
