dc.description.abstractThis paper outlines the road and journey taken by a Mtis-Jewish graduate student to direct a theatre project in partial fulfillment of an MFA in Directing. It is a contribution towards decolonizing theatre and performance study and practice. Offering processes, techniques, and tools that challenge and exist outside of colonial dominant Western theatrical practice and study. This paper is part story, part research, part process, and part reflection. Discussing the deep challenges of creating decolonizing practice within the confines of a colonial institution through an artistic field entrenched in colonial ideals. This is a presented as an activation to inspire ways of working that honour all our relations and allows us, as human collaborators, to show up as our full selves.
