After an 18-month hiatus from theatre, thanks to COVID-19, Grace Batten is deliriously happy to be back at Theatre Orangeville doing the work she loves. The University of Windsor theatre grad passed the pandemic period working at a pet store and is now Production Associate for the summer season. Her Theatre Orangeville repertoire includes The Dream at Island Lake, Matilda, A Christmas Story and Where You Are.
Grace has worked behind the scenes at an eclectic variety of venues, including the Stratford Festival's Avon Theatre, Carnival Cruise Line, Theatre Aquarius, Port Stanley Festival Theatre and the Banff Centre for the Arts, all of which were much more fun than selling dog food.
