Welcome to the Incubator: Jaimie Tait Joins Untellable Movement Theatre

Untellable Movement Theatre is thrilled to welcome Jaimie Tait to our Movement Theatre Incubator program!

This summer, Jaimie will be working alongside Untellable’s Artistic Director Lynn Panting as the Assistant Director on Love’s Labour’s Lost with Shakespeare by the Sea. Through this hands-on mentorship, Jaimie will explore how movement and ensemble-building practices can be woven into the very fabric of theatre-making. Her work with Lynn will focus on creating dynamic physical storytelling, fostering collaborative processes, and building strong ensemble relationships from the ground up.

Jaimie brings a rich and varied background to the Incubator. After graduating from the prestigious acting program at Studio 58, she began her career in theatre focusing on performance, writing, and the creation of new work. In the second chapter of her career, Jaimie transitioned into stage management, where she has spent the past two decades supporting productions with her deep expertise and steady leadership.

Her recent stage management credits include Oderin at the Arts and Culture Centre, The Wild Rovers for Terra Bruce Productions, Tosca for Opera on the Avalon, Offensive to Some for Persistence Theatre, Betroffenheit with Kidd Pivot, and Chelsea Hotel: The Songs of Leonard Cohen for The Firehall Arts Centre.

Now, Jaimie is re-emerging into the creative side of theatre, and we are honoured to support her next steps. Originally from Vancouver, BC, Jaimie moved to Newfoundland ten years ago and proudly calls St. John’s her home.

We are excited for the artistry, curiosity, and collaborative spirit Jaimie brings to Untellable and look forward to seeing the impact of her work on Love’s Labour’s Lost and beyond!
