Odyssey's Strathcona Park Diaries

Strathcona Park is a lovely green space along Ottawa’s waterfront. It’s also where Odyssey Theatre’s fabulous masked shows are performed each summer, except this summer, thanks to COVID-19. The planned production of The School for Scandal has been postponed until 2021, and I’m looking forward to making the masks for it. This summer, Chelsea Fawcett has produced a great online video series about the park for Odyssey, Strathcona Park Diaries. In this episode, she chats with Odyssey’s designers, architect Barry Padolsky, set and costume designer Brian Smith, and me, the production’s mask designer.
