WILLIAM GRANT HUBBARD
Executive Producer
Following more than one successful career in the public and not-for-profit sectors, William decided to pursue his interests in the performing arts by establishing the Society and writing a narrative for its first production: I Am Not a Girl.
“In the summer of 2015 I was sitting on a well-placed log at a West Vancouver beach thinking about my love of the performing arts when I experienced a eureka moment. For too long I had been a passive participant witnessing over 50 productions a year in Vancouver and New York but had not contributed in any tangible artistic sense.
I had thought about chronicling the story behind I Am Not a Girl for some years but couldn’t land on the literary form for this exercise.
It could have been the comfortable log or the sunny day but I was suddenly struck with the notion that the story ought to be told on stage. This led to interviews, study and months of thinking and writing.”
