A founding member of the Vancouver International Song Institute, The Florestan Project, and a faculty member at the University of Buffalo, Alison is in high demand worldwide as a teacher and a performer. Listen in as Alison chats about her love of British Columbia, her gratitude for the wonders of technology that have made her online initiatives possible, and her newfound love of baking. She reflects on what the essential nature of theatre is and how thinking outside the box may create new performance genres for future generations.
