ThisGen 2022 Fellowship

Fellows and Faculty

ThisGen Fellowship 2022 is reimagining the future of leadership across disciplines in Canadian performing arts. Fellows are connected with top-level international faculty creating some of the most ground-breaking work in the world and changing the sector through their leadership. This year’s Fellows are from cities across Canada, while the faculty hails from around the world.

Message from Miriam Fernandes, Why Not Theatre

“I am excited and energized by the incredible cohort we have brought together for ThisGen 2022. Both Directing and Producing Fellows will learn from our faculty of internationally recognized artists and cultural leaders, which is a unique opportunity in the Canadian performing arts sector.

We are particularly pleased to be expanding and deepening the program this year. The addition of a paid work placement opportunity for each Fellow will help to further break down the historical, institutional barriers that have prevented this talented group from being showcased on the national stage until now.”
