On this episode, we hear an inspiring conversation about the power of plays and growing up in Edmonton’s scrappy theatre scene with Louise Casemore.
Louise is an award-winning playwright and self-described “Prairie Nuisance.” She is a dramaturg, and in 2021 she published a national study on new play development titled “Surveying the Landscape.”
Louise also has an interest in human resources. She is an artist advocate and consults with arts organizations around policy creation and organizational audits. Human resources in the performing arts is not only an area of focus for her, she is creatively inspired about the language and nuance we navigate in our working worlds. Her plays specialize in immersive and participatory storytelling to create transformative theatre experiences.
Louise was a recipient of the Edmonton Artists’ Trust Fund (EATF). The award recognizes an artist’s work and contribution to the community and provides financial stability to renew, develop, create or experiment. EATF is a joint project of the Edmonton Arts Council and Edmonton Community Foundation
