About the Playwrights:
Scout Rexe is a playwright and dramaturg. Scout is currently writing Cult Play, a suspenseful solo show that pairs live performance and multimedia to explore coercion, intimacy, and the aesthetics of power, which will premiere with Imago Theatre in Fall 2025 before heading to Neptune Theatre in Winter 2026. Her other plays include O Death, a nuanced exploration of cancel culture, trans identity, and the legacy of our cultural icons, and This is the August, a darkly funny love story about generational frictions, fame, and the blurring of public and private selves, which premiered at SummerWorks.
As a dramaturg, Scout has collaborated on new plays with artists across Canada and the UK. Scout holds an MFA in Creative Writing from the University of Guelph and a BA from Concordia University.
William Lippert is a playwright and scriptwriter. He has been writing lines for almost half of his life, starting in the fringe theater scene of Copenhagen and as a mentee for different renowned Danish playwrights and performers, eg., Hotel Pro Forma, Anna Bro and Jakob Weis. Later on he attended the Danish School of Performing Arts (DASPA) studying playwriting where he graduated in 2020 with a BA degree. Since then, he has been working as a professional, having several plays staged around Denmark. In early 2025 William premiered his first feature film Sauna (New Danish Screen and Nordisk Film) at Sundance Film Festival. He has had different dramatic texts published, been one of the creative directors at the Danish House of Playwriting, been granted funding from the Danish Art Council and won prizes for his work. Most recently he has been studying an MA in playwriting and dramaturgy at Goldsmiths University in London from which he will graduate this September.
