If you’re a girl aged 13-15 who lives in Toronto, check this out: Nightwood Theatre is recruiting for its free Busting Out theatre program, which we wrote about in the Fall 2004 issue of Shameless. The participants of the program will have the opportunity to create and perform a play for public presentation. Professional theatre artists will lead the girls in classes, which include acting, playwrighting, design, movement and clown. And it’s a whole lot of fun, too.
Here’s the info you need to apply:
Program Details:
- Saturday sessions (1pm-4pm) begin on June 3rd and run to August 12th, 2006.
- A week-long intensive workshop from Monday, August 14th to Saturday, August 19th.
- A public presentation, included in the 23rd Annual Groundswell Festival, will be performed on Sunday, August 20th.
- Location: Nightwood Studio (located in the Distillery District, 55 Mill Street).
- Only 14 participants will be selected.
How do you apply?
Deadline to apply is April 30th, so get ready! Send one page telling us a little about who you are; include where you live in Toronto, and why you want to be part of Busting Out! Also send something artistic that shows us something about yourself (for example, a collage, a painting, a poem, an essay about why you like or dont like being a girl, a photo, or ANYTHING else).

(We get to decide what's discriminatory, hateful, attacking, or inflammatory).
In some cases, we will cap off comments on a discussion when we feel they are spiralling out of control and fostering an unwelcoming space for bloggers and readers. Comments will be closed by the Web Editor, unless the post is by the Web Editor, in which case the Editor in Chief will close them.
If your comments repeatedly make the same point, they may be deleted. This also applies to comments made by multiple members of the same organization.
Your comments should be about the topic of the post, not its writer—although we certainly encourage praise for our writers, if you want to say something nice.
