GREG CARRUTHERS
Actor/Choreographer
ABOUT
ME!
Greg Carruthers is a Toronto-based Choreographer, Actor and body-positive activist (@EveryBODYonStage). Hailing from Bradford, Ontario, Greg studied Music Theatre Performance at St. Lawrence College. As a Choreographer, Greg’s work has toured to Dubai and won a BroadwayWorld Award for the Toronto production of Disney’s Mary Poppins which ran for over 200 performances. Greg is passionate about inspiring young performers and has had the opportunity to choreograph at Sheridan College (Pippin, 2021) and the University of Toronto's Hart House Theatre (Legally Blonde, 2020). He has served as resident Director/Choreographer for Canada’s Wonderland and co-wrote and directed the "Patron's Pick" of the Toronto Fringe Festival's KidsFest.
As a performer, Greg was most recently seen on the US tour of Trey Parker’s Cannibal! The Musical and has had the opportunity to develop many new musicals throughout his career.
Currently, Greg is developing a visibility project for plus-size performers titled “EveryBODY on Stage". The project aims to break down stigma and fat-phobia in the arts in an effort to reduce the harm done by body dysmorphia and disordered eating on the long-term health of artists and to encourage the positive representation of all body-types on stage. www.everybodyonstage.com
