I've been reading a lot of superhero content with my son over the holidays and noticing that if there's a woman in the comic her superpower is usually invisibility, which - really?

For those theatre creators/playwrights developing new work - development cycles will be pushed back a number of years maybe three or four. Are we developing work into a void?

[Jessica Anne Nelson @jessannenelson]

Bless these insights! Inspired to be this thoughtful, intuitive, creative and hard working!

So I am officially back in the rehearsal room directing a play. I haven’t worked since February. Here are the things I wish I knew about going back to work months ago:

[Canadian Institute for Inclusion and Citizenship @CIICUBC]

Remember Romance, Relationships & Rights? Well, @VancouverFdn has approved our test grant to undertake "We Deserve to Work! Self Advocates Transforming Attitudes About and Experiences with Employment."
Excited to reconnect with the self advocate actors/co-creators from @CLS_BC.

[Jessica Anne Nelson @jessannenelson]

Very excited to continue this important work again!

[Canadian Institute for Inclusion and Citizenship @CIICUBC]

Thank you @VancouverFdn for supporting this work and @CLS_BC @Masseytheatre and @jessannenelson for your continued partnership.

#BreonnaTalyor was shot in her home while she slept. 8 times. Hopefully if we work together to keep her name alive her murderers will be brought to justice. #JusticeForBreonnaTaylor
