In Spring of 2019, Leigh-Anne toured Saskatchewan for three weeks with the Organization of Saskatchewan Arts Council’s Junior and Family concerts series, as well as northern Ontario as one of two selected storyteller’s through the Storyteller’s of Canada and the Toronto Dominion Children’s Book Week.

Leigh-Anne’s plays have been performed/commissioned by Theatre Projects MB, Prairie Theatre Exchange’s Carol Shields Festival and the Northern Light Theatre in Edmonton.  In addition to these professional productions she’s created eighteen hit Fringe Festival plays, many of which garnering 4 and 5 STAR reviews, sold out runs and Best of Festival honours.  With financial assistance from the Manitoba Arts Council, Leigh-Anne recently wrote and performed in O(phelia), for the 2020 RMTC Shakespearefest.  The play was nominated for an Evie (Winnipeg Theatre Award) for best new work and is being developped into a full–length work titled Gertrude and Ophelia.
