Congratulations to Dr. Patrick Pennefather on receiving the prestigious SSHRC grant. This will fund his work to create a remotely played series of problem/puzzle games.

In the midst of a pandemic, our students have proven to be exceptionally resilient. We are proud to spotlight the work they have accomplished this year.

This year, the UBC Rogers Communications Multicultural Film Production Project was honoured to have Tracey Deer as the Phil Lind Multicultural Artist-in-Residence for UBC Theatre and Film. As a multiple award-winning Indigenous producer, screenwriter, and filmmaker, Tracey shared her creative process with our students through the lens of her unique perspective and life experience as a Mohawk woman. 

UBC Theatre and Film is proud to announce that our alumnus, Drew Pollins, has been shortlisted for the prestigious Cannes Lions Young Director Award.
