About 25% of the time I put into being Co-Artistic Director of Praxis Theatre is devoted specifically to our blog and online presence .

That we would have ever ended up spending this much time developing our theatre company online never occurred to Co-AD Simon Rice and I when we began Praxis in the winter of 2003, but it seems wholly necessary in the early spring of 2009. We think it’s so important we’re in the middle of putting time and money into integrating and re-launching our website and blog at praxistheatre.com.

Why? Because theatre, like virtually every other art form and industry, is being radically reshaped by the power and popularity of online media. Here are the top three reasons why:

Praxis Theatre will present two new original works in the summer of 2009!

1) Tim Buck 2 @ The Toronto Fringe Festival

The first iteration of our original adaptation/exploration of the Progressive Arts Club’s depression-era protest play, Eight Men Speak, will be presented at The Tranzac as part of The Fringe Club.

2) Underneath @ The SummerWorks Theatre Festival

Playwright and international security adviser Andrew Zadel, author of the award-winning Steel, returns to Praxis Theatre with his tale of UN forensic pathologists struggling to arrive at definitive answers in Kosovo.

Sounds impossible – and slightly suspect – we know. But here’s what we’re thinking: Send us a digital version of your 2007 Toronto Fringe Festival postcard or poster, and we’ll post it here on our blog. Simple.

We get to learn more about your show, look at your awesome postcard, and everyone wins.

Please send your Fringe Festival postcards here. (Hi-resolution versions are preferable, but we’ll gladly take whatever you’ve got handy.)

Thanks a lot. We love you dearly.
