Biography
BIOGRAPHY NORMAN NAWROCKI
NORMAN NAWROCKI has been teaching in SCPA since 2005 (when he created the course The Arts, Social Justice & CED), 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 US since 1993. A multi-disciplinary performer since 1985, he has given thousands of shows of his socially engaged theatre, music and poetry across North America and Europe, and in Hong Kong and New Zealand. He's written eighteen books of fiction (poetry, short stories, novellas and novels) and non-fiction, a few dozen theatre musicals and solo cabarets, and released over seventy albums of spoken word and music. A community organiser in Vancouver and Montreal since the 1970s, his research focus is how grassroots movements for social justice can incorporate the arts in their work.
