Patricia Allison

Patricia is a Toronto based creator. Her first full length play, Richard Three, was produced by Shakespeare in the Ruff in 2023. She was a member of the 2024 Creators’ Unit at the Capitol Theatre in Port Hope where she developed her newest full length play, a Disability centric holiday show, Resolution Season. She earned a Masters of Fine Arts in Dance from York University which she completed in 2019. For the thesis research and project Patricia studied canonical counter discourse and adaptation theory. This developed her passion of approaching the western classics (Shakespeare, Ballet, etc.) through her own feminist, queer, and disabled lens. Patricia was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in April of 2017 and is an advocate for disabled artists while continuing to familiarize herself with her new body.
