In this week’s episode, I sit down with Ari Weinberg. Ari Weinberg is an actor, director, and the Artistic Director of the Winnipeg Jewish Theatre. In our conversation today we discuss his experiences growing up near Toronto and what that meant for how he was introduced to theatre, what he learned from the arts programs he was a part of and how he began working in the industry, as well as what drew him to the musical theatre performance program at Sheridan College and what he took from his time there. We also discuss how he began working as a director, the importance of viewing yourself the way you want to be viewed by others and how he became the Artistic Director of the Winnipeg Jewish Theatre, as well as where he sees theatre in Canada headed in the future.
