I’ve known Allen for more than 20 years, but until we met recently, I had no idea that, in addition to being Artistic Director at both Young People’s Theatre, Toronto, and the Prairie Theatre Exchange, Winnipeg, his career as an actor was his principal focus.
As another guest who came up through the Vancouver Playhouse Theatre School, Allen reinforces the fact that this was a first-rate training ground. And as he discusses the path he followed, a path that is as geographical as it is developmental, we travel from the West right across the country with substantial stops along the way. Finally, it’s Toronto that has claimed Allen as one of its own, and I know that you’ll find our conversation both engaging and revealing.
