Steffi DiDomenicantonio
Pronounced Dee-doh-men-ee-can-toe-nee-oh, Steffi is a Dora-nominated performer based in Toronto who has acted and sung on stages across North America.

In Rosanna Deerchild’s The Secret to Good Tea, laughter is a crucial part of the brew
“If you get two or three Indigenous people in the same room, somebody is going to start making jokes,” says Deerchild. “We have a lot of trauma, but we also have a lot of laughter and joy.

6 in the Six: The Greatest Showmance
In the moment, the showmance sounds cute. But will it be worth it if (and when) it all comes crashing down and falls apart?
“Showmance” is not a real word; it was invented by people in the acting industry. For those of you not familiar with the term, this is how Steffi DiDomenicantonio’s dictionary defines the word: two co-stars are working together in a show and are playing love interests. Time passes and the onstage feelings get confused for real-life feelings.
For me, English is more cerebral and French is more visceral. One comes from my head and the other comes from my gut.
