An active practitioner and voice within the Northern Ontario theatre/arts communities, Tova is committed to the vibrant creativity that is developed when engaging with diverse performers, practitioners, and audiences. Completing both a BFA cum laude (Laurentian University), and post-graduate studies in Public Relations and Event Management (Sault College), Tova has successfully merged her passions for creating amazing theatre & building community-engaged arts and culture events. She continues to be heavily involved in many local/regional productions and events. Tova is committed to prioritizing justice, equity, equality, diversity and inclusion in any and all work that she does. She believes in doing the necessary work to centre diverse voices, hold space for those who are fighting for equity and equality, and stand in solidarity with folks who are marginalized, criminalized and othered. A co-founder of Fringe North, Tova has held both Artistic Director (2016-2018), and Artistic Producer (2021) positions. ​

His love of theatre has led to his involvement in roughly 25+ productions. He also enjoys drawing, painting, print lino stamp creation, and cosplay.

​
Hi. I was introduced to theatre and Fringe in my hometown of Edmonton. I wouldn't call myself an avid theatre-goer, as I'm more on the gaming and cosplay side of arts & culture :D But like many things for me in Sault Ste. Marie, with Fringe North at first I was just a curious event attendee, and gradually wanted to help out more with this fledgling community initiative. I've since moved away from the Sault to continue my community planning career, but am still happy to contribute.
