BRIAN DEEDRICK
Director
Last Supper

Edmonton-based theatre and opera director Brian Deedrick is delighted to team up with a lovely bunch of coconuts and direct this premiere production of A LAST SUPPER.  A former Artistic Director of Edmonton Opera, his freelance opera gigs take him all over Canada and the US, with occasional forays as far afield as Israel, Germany and Italy.  And whether the work is full-blown grand opera with too many high notes to count, or that magical blend of word and song that makes musical theatre so loved, or that intimate experience of the spoken word and the proverbial two boards and a passion, it is all about the telling of tales and the sharing of the human experience that makes the work we do so exhilarating and worthwhile.  If we include the workshop of her MFA thesis, this is Brian’s fourth outing with a Conni Massing play (NORA AT DAYBREAK, TERMINUS, OH! CHRISTMAS TREE, and A LAST SUPPER), so he considers himself directorially one of the truly blessed.  Enjoy!
