Impressions
«I am happy to be a referee for the membership of Vladimir Chikishev of Russia. I met Vladimir in Copenhagen, Denmark in 1996 at the World Festival of Children’s Theatre, where his theatre troupe, PIANO, performed at the festival. It was clear that Vladimir is a special theatre educator and mentor to the children. The performance level was very high and he was very much appreciated and revered by the children. We talked a lot about his work with children, and I learned a lot from him. We have met several more times since and our professional relationship has grown. I have invited PIANO to come to Canada as a special guest troupe, as part of our World Festival of Children’s Theatre in June 2016. We are in the process of arranging performances outside of the festival for PIANO, because I feel that Vladimir’s work with the children should be seen more widely, both within and outside the deaf community.»
