I used the example of what they're doing in London, because what caught my imagination about that.... I visited the National Theatre, the Globe Theatre, the Tate Gallery, and the National Gallery, and what excited me was they had a big idea of Shakespeare. If you want to use Shakespeare in Canada, that would be fine too. But they use Shakespeare. What I liked about it is how they all interpreted it in their way that was suitable for their institution.
The theme could be Canada at 150, simple as that, and we could get arts institutions around that idea. As I said, Stratford's idea is to commission some plays about the big stories of Canada over the last 150 years. I think other arts organizations could take that same idea and get excited about it. But as Janice said, I also think it takes some discussion and consultation to package that big idea to get people really excited about it.
