About me
Pleased to meet You!
I’m Barbra French, a Canadian theatre artist, creator and educator. My theatrical journey began when I stepped on stage at the tender age of eight and ignited a life-long passion for the performing arts. I’m an alumnus of Vancouver Island University, the University of British Columbia (BA, Theatre) and the University of Alberta (MFA, Directing). I was founder and Artistic Director of several companies, including The Etcetera Theatre Collective (Edmonton), In Other Words Theatre (Nanaimo), and am currently reviving ETC into the Etcetera Theatre Company.
As an instructor, I’ve taught courses in acting, scene study, performance creation and creativity at universities, colleges and private theatres across Western Canada for almost 25 years. I’ve also directed dozens of productions, am a published playwright, and I’ve co-created seven full-length devised works for the theatre. Currently, I’m finishing myscene book, Moments: 75 flexible scenes for Two or Three Actors and working on several new plays.
Since 2012, I ‘ve been working with community theatre actors and organizations, teaching, coaching and adjudicating festivals. My mission is to help these artists and groups hone their skills and gain more confidence by offering them the professional techniques that they may be have access to. As a passionate believer in the power of live, human connection to help heal the world, my goal is to bring people back to the theatre and theatre back to the people.
After a stint in Mexico, I am very happy to be back living on beautiful Vancouver Island with my beloved husband, Greg, and our rescue dog, Tucker.
