Trevor John Studios

Trevor John Studios "The smallest, most active theatre centre in our part of the world" - CBO Morning. [Ottawa - 1986-1997]

Working first from Arts Court, then from 951 Gladstone, the 50 seat Studio Theatre housed youth and adult drama classes, and showcased New Works.

103 actors appeared on the Studio stage, from 8 companies, in 20 shows, 13 of which were new works, over 2 years, to 4000 patrons.

I came across a bunch of quotes about the Studio from the press:

" A small but vital theatre on Ottawa's theatre strip." -John Lacharity, CBC Radio.

"Like good rock and roll, raw, high energy, ad ferociously relevant." Tom McSorley, on "Film At Eleven" by Adam Swimmer.

"THE place to see he future of Ottawa theatre." -Tom McSorley, CBC Radio.

For all the the good reviews Tom McSorley gave us, I never met him. I knew the other critics, but never met Tom.

I knew Iris Winston (The Ottawa Citizen) well, and Alvina Ruprecht (CBC Radio) and john Lacharity (CBC Radio).

Neil Hurland gave Film at Eleven a rave review. (Ottawa XPress)

Janice Kennedy (Ottawa Citizen) did not hide her animosity. She once accused me of getting "more media than I deserved." I merely agreed and said "I only send out the Press Releases, your story editor decides what to cover."
