BIOGRAPHY NORMAN NAWROCKI

NORMAN NAWROCKI has been teaching in SCPA since 2005, in the Department of Theatre since 2018, and in the Quebec Ministry of Culture and Communications 'Culture in the Schools' provincial program since 2003. He has lectured and facilitated workshops about social issues and the arts at universities and colleges across Canada and in the USA since 1993. A multi-disciplinary performer since 1985, he has given thousands of shows of his own socially engaged theatre, music and poetry across North America, Europe and Hong Kong. He's also written seventeen books of poetry, short stories, novellas and a novel, a few dozen theatre musicals and solo cabarets, and released over 70 albums of music. He is co-artistic director of the Montreal International Anarchist Theatre Festival. A community organizer in Vancouver and Montreal since the 1970s, his research focus is how grassroots movements for social justice can incorporate the arts in their work.
