Coleen Shirin

goodnight, peter. the father of us all, the greatest of the age, and a legacy, now, for all time. i am so grateful to have known you & for your wit & love & guidance. you found such joy & wisdom in so many empty spaces: & in the loneliness of an artist's restless, endless search.

We are deeply saddened by the news that Majdi Bou-Matar, director of Suitcase حقيبة/Adrenalineأدرينالين (from our 19.20 season), has passed away. Our thoughts go out to friends at @theMTspace and Theatre Mada, and all those who were lucky to witness Majdi's work in the arts.

@rachel_mutombo_ Bravo to all your work!!!!!

@rachel_mutombo_ That was my last show too before COVID !

I produced this series through a pandemic, without childcare, while processing anger, grief and trauma with 100+ other BIPOC creatives and yet the only word I can use to describe it all is JOY. Thank you @obsidiantheatre @CBCArts @TheCdnAcademy for this Best Series win 🏆

#InternationalWomensDay is not for celebrating. It is for protesting against and raising awareness about the fact that people are still being oppressed or treated differently because of their gender.

@ndrwkushnir @macleans @sarah_fulford Beautiful writing, thank you @ndrwkushnir 🇺🇦 Thinking of everyone impacted by this senselessness 💔

A piece I’ve written for @macleans about the last few days. For my fellow Ukrainian-Canadians. For Ukraine and Ukrainians. For anyone caring from afar, trying to make sense of senselessness. Thank you @sarah_fulford for inviting me to write my heartache. macleans.ca/news/canada/my…

@robynmkennedy @WestJet Yes same.

@WestJet really disappointed. I can’t find a human to speak to. My bag has been delayed at YYZ for almost 24 hours …

@WestJet @michaels649 I followed through with above and then they said “we can’t help with your baggage claim”. This is just a pure farce.

@michaels649 Hello, thank you for connecting with us. If you have an existing reservation could you please send us the six-letter reservation code, full name on reservation as well as the email address or itinerary details on the booking via Private Message so we may better assist you. twitter.com/messages/compo…

@NFLTrainerWendy @michaels649 @WestJet Ok I think we need to submit a baggage report … I thought I did this at the airport but didn’t get a confirmation number. @WestJet maybe you can help your customers?

@michaels649 @coleenmacpher @WestJet Been waiting for a direct message reply since SATURDAY. Customer service is job #1

@michaels649 @WestJet It’s so frustrating!!!! 😳

@coleenmacpher @WestJet In the same boat as you - haven’t heard an update yet either.

@glennsumi I did. We reconnected after 14 years …. 🥰

Psst... am writing a big story about love, sex & relationships during COVID. Did you meet yr true love during the pandemic? Did lockdown cause u to break up? Have u remained single & scared? Do you simply scroll through dating apps? DM me or email glenns at nowtoronto dot com.

@QUCollective @OHsurgery Thanks for your incredible music Amy! ❤️

The Daily (yesterday) 5 things from Laurie Anderson regarding her personal criteria for all her projects: 1) Is it complicated enough? 2) it simple enough? 3) Is it crazy enough? 4) Is it beautiful enough 5) Is it stupid enough?

We’ve already emitted 89% of the CO2 budget that gives us a 66% chance of staying below 1,5°C. That’s why historic emissions not only count - they nearly make up the entire climate crisis. And yet they’re still being almost completely ignored by media and people in power.

We are diving into Christiane’s paintings @OHsurgery @CanadaCouncil for our audio-fiction #wildwomenpodcast #femalepainters #soundart #theatreartists

Stand by for some exciting news next week from our new Artistic Director, Mike Payette, about the upcoming season! #lookingbackmovingforward #Tarragon50
