We are thrilled to welcome Josh Languedoc (NIFF 2022 Artist) to lead a virtual workshop on How to Fringe on Tuesday, January 10 from 12:00PM - 1:00PM EST.

If you haven't had a change to catch Josh's work, he is a proud member of Saugeen First Nation and lives as a guest in Treaty 6 Territory as an Anishinaabe playwright, storyteller, teacher, and producer. Josh has been touring his solo performance Rocko and Nakota: Tales From the Land into theatres and festivals all across Canada (including our very own 2022 festival). He has many other works and also teaches around the Edmonton area with the Citadel’s Foote Theatre School, Edmonton Public Schools, Artstrek, Northern Alberta YMCA, and Workshop West Playwrights’ Theatre. Josh works as the Director Indigenous Strategic Planning at Edmonton Fringe Theatre and the Youth Education Coordinator at Workshop West Playwrights’ Theatre.
