Love takes many forms on stage. From fairy royalty to newlyweds, from awkward flirtations to forbidden affairs, intimacy on stage helps tell the story of how characters are connected and what they mean to each other.
This Valentine’s Day, we spotlight intimate moments on stage across eight seasons of productions, honouring the care, choreography, and creativity behind every embrace, kiss, and whispered confession.
Anastasia’s connection to theatre began early, sparked by a junior high school production that made something click deep inside. “I saw a production the grade 8s had created for a ‘Welcome New Students’ night and felt an intense pull to be involved,” she recalls. “I haven’t stopped yet.” That lifelong passion eventually led her to Pine Tree Players, where she first appeared as an actor in the 2018 Canmore Summer Theatre Festival production of Romeo and Juliet, and earlier that same year she was the fight director for I Hate Hamlet.
