Abstract

Eight years ago Robert Winslow began to fulfil a dream he had nurtured during several years of formative work and training as an actor and director across Canada: to stage regional drama on the site of his family farm. With the aid of countless local artists, he was able to embark upon a more focused mandate for his own artistic vision, as well as for the vision of many others who see regional stories as neglected and worthy of theatrical recuperation. With Winslow as artistic director, the Fourth Line Theatre Collective has helped to provide a venue for many of these stories. The company’s mandate, to seek out and to nurture regional historic narratives, has been a valuable and exciting project for artists and audience alike as they have ventured out, each summer, into the rural Ontario environment that comprises Fourth Line’s outdoor multiple stage sites.
