Lead by Jay Dodge and Sherry J Yoon, Boca works with a broad spectrum of artists and organizations when creating our productions. As one of Vancouver’s most innovative and dynamic theatre companies, Boca del Lupo specializes in experimental theatrical productions and spectacular outdoor presentations while focusing on collaborations with international, national and regional artists. My Dad, My Dog recently premiered as a commission of the PuSh International Performing Arts Festival, and marks the company’s 20th new work.
Originating as a collective in 1996, for the last eight years Boca del Lupo has been led by Artistic Director Sherry J. Yoon and Artistic Producer Jay Dodge. Yoon has been a key creator and/or director for each of the company’s original productions and Dodge’s writing, performance and designs have been central in all of Boca del Lupo’s shows. During the pair’s tenure, the company has received numerous awards including Jessie Richardson Theatre Awards for Outstanding Design, Outstanding Production, Significant Artistic Achievement, Outstanding Performance, along with the Critic’s Choice Award for Innovation and the Alcan Performing Arts Award.
