We’ve seen it happen before our eyes: amid a global pandemic, many aspects of life as we know it took a sharp turn in many ways, including digitally. Arts and culture adapted to this digital shift, institutions pivoting with agility and thoughtfulness to meet the audience where they’re at: behind a screen.
To learn about the many challenges facing the performing arts industry and the steps experts have taken towards a successful digital transition, we will be discussing the ins and outs of adapting business models to a new reality with Catherine Gentilcore, Marketing Director of the Opéra de Montréal, Philippe Drago, Creative Director of FIFA and Frédérique Brault, Director of Communications at the Théâtre du Nouveau Monde.
Frédérique Brault, Director, communications, marketing and sales, Théâtre Nouveau MondeCounting over twenty years of management experience among some of Montreal’s largest organizations (Expos, Alouettes, Olympic Park), Frédérique Brault turned to the theatre world, first at Duceppe in 2016, before landing at the TNM in 2019. In the last year, the TNM has remained a lively and innovative cultural institution, notably by developing the presentation of its alternative season in webcasting. |
