Denise Kenneystudied at the Lecoq Theatre School in Paris, and have my MFA in film directing from the University of British Columbia- Vancouver. I have a Bachelor of Arts in Drama (Distinction), and a Bachelor of Education in Drama and English from the Universityof Alberta. In addition to being Associate Professor at the University of British Columbia- Okanagan, I am Co-Artistic Director of Inner Fish Performance Co. I have worked as a performer/creator for theatres in Canada and the U.S. committed to devised work and have written, directed and produced narrative and documentary independent film and lifestyle series television (for which I won a Leo Award in 2001 for Best Director in a Lifestyle Series).
