Board of Directors
 | Graham Daley Our newly elected president, Graham, has been bringing scene stealing moments to Shakespeare Kelowna since 2022, having been part of our last 5 productions. Be he a love-smitten fool or a flailing drunkard, we were happy to take him off the stage and bring him on to our board of directors last year. Stepping into the role of President he hopes to bring new ideas, a fresh perspective, and a incredible amount of fun to an already exciting troupe. Graham has been acting since 2011. When he is not on stage, or around the theatre, you’ll find him serving you breakfast at Cora Breakfast and Lunch where he has been working for the last 9 years. “Shakespeare broadens the mind, but Shakespeare Kelowna broadens the heart and soul. Everyone involved in SKTS is like family to me and I am deeply honored to be their President. See you all for a magical season in 2027″. | President |
