   Dana Irving is a Canadian landscape painter living in Vancouver, BC. At once whimsical and serene, Dana's paintings spark admiration and contemplation in the viewer, inviting them to guess at the stories that unfold in her unique landscapes. Her work has been compared to both Emily Carr and Dr. Seuss, and both hold in her incredibly creative approaches to painting the Canadian landscape. Dana's use of striking, saturated colour and smooth, seamless brushwork created a mesmerizing combination to entice reflection and celebration. Masterfully capturing the landscapes we hold dear, Dana's sense of wonder and awe for place is unmatched.

   Oscar Wilde’s celebrated classic is among the most cherished and frequently performed comedies. This comic masterpiece, which delves into themes of identity, transition, and transformation, consistently captivates audiences with its wit and charm. It’s a true testament to the enduring appeal of Wilde’s work, and we’re excited to present it at UVic for the first time. Guest director and UVic alumnus Alistair Newton promises a fresh perspective—breaking free from tradition, unravelling the hidden layers and challenging conventions in this classic masterpiece.
