Canadian Actors' Equity Association announces that Donna Soares of
Vancouver, B.C. was the winner of the 2009 Stage West - Equity Emerging
Theatre Artist Award. The Award was presented at the Gladstone Hotel in
Toronto, Ontario on November 30th.

The Award, and its $2,000 cash prize, was initiated in celebration of
Equity's silver anniversary in 2001. It is sponsored by Stage West
Theatre Restaurants and recognizes an Equity member of three years or
less who has made a significant contribution and impression as an
artist. 

Donna is an innovative performer, specializing in a collaborative
creative style and she is already making an impressive mark on the
theatre scene in Vancouver and across Canada. Howard Pechet, executive
producer of Stage West, praises Donna as "an actor who displays
tremendous creative ability as well as a voracious appetite for all
aspects of theatre, an appetite that embodies very little ego and a
great deal of determination to succeed in a very tough business by
trying her hand at all aspects of theatre."
 
Congratulations Donna!
