Anyone who has gone through home renovations knows what that experience is like: you're often confined to one or two rooms, living out of boxes, eating out.  Your home stops feeling like "home."

Currently, Theatre Ontario is under "virtual renovations" as we prepare for the launch of our new website.  Our blog isn't as active, our old website is updated less frequently, and this monthly bulletin is both a little later--and a little leaner--than usual.  But we're really excited as we prepare for the grand unveiling of our new website, helping us to serve you better.

Thanks for your patience!
Informing artist voters across Ontario
ArtsVote
Municipal election day is October 25.  Across our province, artists, arts workers, and arts supporters are working to help inform voters and to put arts on the electoral agenda.  Brandon Moore writes about ArtsVote across Ontario on our blog.
Membership Changes

Sadly, this past month we said goodbye to Mandy Rumbolt, our Membership Coordinator.  For the past year and a half, Mandy has been your point of contact for new and returning members and donors, she's introduced several new member-benefit programs, and she has been an enthusiastic part of our expanded outreach to Ontario's theatre sector.  She will be missed.
Congratulations 2011 Shaw Interns

We are pleased to announce that Craig Hall and Johnna Wright have been chosen as the 2011 Intern Directors for the Neil Munro Intern Directors Project at the Shaw Festival.

Each year, the Shaw Festival hires two Intern Directors for a period of about six months.  They look for promising professional directors near the beginning of their careers.  Since its inception in 1988, the project has been sponsored annually by Sun Life Financial and Theatre Ontario.
