"What happens outside, happens inside."
Join director André Sills and Dean Gabourie, director of The Goat or, Who is Sylvia?, as they discuss Sills’ Festival directorial debut, Get That Hope, a new play by Toronto playwright Andrea Scott.
Listen as Sills describes his direction style, how he redefines problem solving and how he approaches rehearsal obstacles differently—by not repairing them but rather by looking for opportunities inside them. Sills and Gabourie also speak of the significance of directing the ground-breaking play and how Sills, the cast and the crew have not taken it lightly, as it is the first Jamaican production to première at the Festival.
