Norm Foster

Norm Foster was born in Newmarket, Ontario in 1949. He attended West Hill Collegiate High School in Toronto. He studied Radio and Television Arts at Centennial College in Toronto, and at Confederation College in Thunder Bay. Norm wrote two plays for Malcolm Black, then Artistic Director of Theatre New Brunswick. Those two plays, Sinners and The Melville Boys were enormously successful for Theatre New Brunswick. The Melville Boys has made Foster one of Canada’s most produced playwrights. The Affections of May, Sinners and The Melville Boys have been translated into French.

Storm Warning was first produced at The Bluewater Summer Playhouse in Kincardine, ON, in July of 2003 with the following company:
