This week the Ignite! Festival starts in Calgary and NextFest starts in Edmonton (June 5-15), so I wanted to speak to an emerging artist. I found out my fellow Grindstone Improviser Aldrick Dugarte is currently doing the BFA program at the U of A, and he very generously agreed to talk to me about his hopes for his future career, his experience at University and path to becoming a performer. Aldrick is a very smart and funny person and I'm excited to see his Fringe show and where his career goes!
No tickets yet for Fringe, but when they come out check out Aldrick's show !
