Giacomo Gianniotti was in the latest season of Grey’s Anatomy. Matt Murray is a regular on the ABC Family show Kevin from Work. And Oyin Oladejo and Sina Gilani are regulars on the Toronto theatre scene. Gilani is best known for his recent dramatic (and controversial) turn in the Buddies in Bad Times play The 20th of November. The one-man show features Gilani as school shooter Bastian Bosse. It’s based mainly on the 18-year-old’s blog entries, right until Nov. 20, 2006, when he shot 30 classmates and teachers in Germany. “Acting is a craft,” says Gilani, who originally came to Canada from Iran to study physics. “It takes the rehearsal process to try and find your way into the character and the play. The collective of the artists working on the play helped get inside Bastian's world and his twisted psychology. It is called a one-person show, but it is not a one-person production.” The actor and playwright is currently working on touring his Summerworks-featured play In Case of Nothing, as well as two films and workshopping his new play Field of Reeds.

  • Coca-Cola Stage Backgrounder 2016
    May 26, 2016 BACKGROUNDER 2016 Coca-Cola Stage lineup Christian Hudson Appearing Thursday, July 7, 7 p.m. Website: http://www.christianhudsonmusic.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ChristianHudsonMusic Twitter: www.twitter.com/CHsongs While most may know Christian Hudson by his unique and memorable performances at numerous venues across Western Canada, others seem to know him by his philanthropy. This talented young man won the prestigious Calgary Stampede Talent Show last summer but what was surprising to many was he took his prize money of $10,000 and donated it all to the local drop-in centre. He was touched by the stories he was told by a few people experiencing homelessness he had met one night prior to the contest’s finale. His infectious originals have caught the ears of many in the industry that are now assisting his career. He was honoured to receive 'The Spirit of Calgary' Award at the inaugural Vigor Awards for his generosity. Hudson will soon be touring Canada upon the release of his first single on national radio. JJ Shiplett Appearing Thursday, July 7, 8 p.m. Website: http://www.jjshiplettmusic.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jjshiplettmusic/ Twitter: www.twitter.com/jjshiplettmusic Rugged, raspy and reserved, JJ Shiplett is a true artist in every sense of the word. Unapologetically himself, the Alberta born singer-songwriter and performer is both bold in range and musical creativity and has a passion and reverence for the art of music and performance that has captured the attention of music fans across the country. He spent the major part of early 2016 as one of the opening acts on the Johnny Reid tour and is also signed to Johnny Reid’s company.

  • 1. a Crisis of Quality
    1. A Crisis oF QuAlity On June 23, 2010, Canadians were startled with some big news in the media world. No, Oprah wasn’t joining the cbc. But some other ideas from south of the border had washed up in Montreal. A press conference had been called by Quebecor, one of Canada’s biggest media corporations. The other media outlets sensed something newsworthy. Kory Teneycke, an aggressive conservative who had previously served as Stephen Harper’s communications director, bounded onstage wearing a big, pale blue tie. He was here to reveal the birth of a new television network — Sun tv. Spectators immediately made the connection with Fox News in the U.S. when Teneycke boasted: “We’re taking on the mainstream media. We’re taking on smug, condescending, often irrelevant journalism. We’re taking on political correctness. We will not be a state broadcaster offering boring news by bureaucrats, for elites and paid for by taxpayers.”1 Now, said the wags, Canada would have a Fox News North, something to challenge that smug, condescending cbc. Starting in 2011, Quebecor’s new venture promised to bring us cheap opinion shows in the mould of Fox News, what Nancy Franklin, of the New Yorker, calls the screech shows. The gathering of actual news by professional journalists needn’t take up much of the budget. The Canadian media enjoy high ratings at home and abroad 5 6 About CAnAdA: MediA for their serious journalism, their advanced telecommunications and their lively entertainment in radio, film andtv . As my dad reminds me: “Canadian comedians Wayne and Shuster appeared on the Ed Sullivan Show more than any other comedians.” The National Film Board of Canada has long been admired for its high quality documentaries and animation.
