statement on student harassment and abuse

To our Montreal theatre community,

In light of the recent events relating to the harassment and abuse of students in our educational institutions, Persephone Productions wishes to express our support and solidarity towards the victims of these injustices.

In our specific mandate to nurture and uphold the talents of emerging professional artists, we also wish to reiterate at this time our ongoing commitment towards creating a safe environment within our company for theatre practice. We stand with our whole community.
