Her understanding of immersive experiences, audience/performer dynamics, interactive performance, and audience safety fundamentally shapes and evolves the production year after year. The success of Dead Centre of Town is undoubtedly thanks to Christine’s collaboration and ingenuity.

Christine has a wonderful ability to find a balance between allowing ideas to develop organically and with spontaneity, while at the same time maintaining clear focus on details, and time. As an artist, I feel very fortunate to have the opportunity to collaborate, and also learn new things from Christine. She is a director that I have no hesitation putting my full trust in.

Lesiak is an artist of exceptional resources. She knows how to make theatrical magic from the smallest of words, objects, movements, and moments.

I am constantly impressed by the depth, breadth, and innovative quality of her creative vision.

Working with Christine was an absolutely invaluable experience. Over the years I have been blessed to work with her as a director, dramaturg and collaborator. The generosity, precision and play she brings to the work is truly unique. Any chance to work with her is a gift

To be in a room with Christine, practicing, playing, learning, and exploring, is a breath of fresh air that allows me to move through the rest of the parts of my life with a renewed sense of creativity and openness.

Christine Lesiak is a mentor that teaches with more than words. She also teaches through her actions and whole-hearted emotion.

Working with Christine was refreshing, inspiring and safe! She asks such good questions and it opened the door for the work to go even deeper. She trusts and validates her Artists! I had an incredible time working with her!

Christine sets a fun and safe space to experiment and try new things. It's so freeing to be able to celebrate mistakes and play without judgement

What Christine has taught me has helped me transition from student to emerging artist. What I have taken away from working with Christine is invaluable because she has not only shared knowledge with me but, more importantly, she has equipped me with the tools to use that knowledge & apply what I have learned.
