[Candrama] memoir

[Ric Knowles]

Hi all,

I've written an informal professional memoir about my life in the theatre and theatre studies in the academy. I don't expect anyone to want to publish it, but I'm offering it to anyone who wants to read it. It has no gossip or big personal revelations, no-one gets dissed, and I don't claim to have been exceptional. But it does record from a specific individual position six decades of learning and work in arguably the most formative period in Canadian theatre and Canadian theatre studies (the 60s to the present).

It's called "The Craft So Long to Learn," it's about learning, and it shares some of what I've learned, so I've  dedicated it to the folks from whom I've learned the most: Sandy Leggat, Robin Phillips, Tracy Davis, Monique Mojica, Yvette Nolan, Soheil Parsa, Nina Lee Aquino, and Majdi Bou Matar. And of course to my partner, Christine Bold.

Anyone interested can send me their email address to rknowles at uoguelph.ca and I'll send you a copy by attachment.

Cheers,
Ric
