Abstract
Shakespeare in Love was adapted for the stage by Lee Hall and originally written by Marc Norman and Tom Stoppard. It was produced by the University of Calgary Drama Division in the School of Creative and Performing Arts from November 24th to December 2nd, 2023 at the Reeve Theatre. This artist statement is a thoughtful examination of my directorial process from re-imagining the material and building the world of the play to managing rehearsals and navigating obstacles along the way. I also pay particular attention to my discoveries as a Filipino-born and raised director adjusting to and learning from Canadian theatre practice.
