#159 - Matt Lacas
In this week\u2019s episode, I sit down with Matt Lacas. Matt Lacas is an actor, director, and the creator of We Are Here Productions. In our conversation today we discuss the important shift that is occurring with regards to how mental health is talked about, how sometimes our desire to be \u201cgenuine\u201d can actually have an opposite effect, as well as what he has learned from training both in Quebec as well as Ontario. We also discuss how his company We Are Here Productions was created and what he has learned through their first two productions, their upcoming production of Urinetown to benefit WaterAid Canada and how it has differed from the company\u2019s past experiences, as well as where he hopes to see We Are Here Productions and theatre in Canada headed in the future.
