Time for an update! It's beena a busy year with some interesting events. First, some things to look forward to:
Anthony will appear in "The Magicians" in the upcoming 4th Season. You may not recognize him, but you'll see him in a few fun scenes.
He also appears in the web series "Narcoleap". It's a cool show and here's what it's about: Kelsey has never been very remarkable. Things don’t get any easier when her persistent teenage lethargy escalates into full blown narcolepsy. Her dreams are always different but have a recurring theme; being trapped in someone else’s body. You can watch it by clicking here.
Anthony also spent time on the stage this year at Pacific Theatre playing Charles Williams in the Premier produciton of Ron Reed's play, "Tolkien".
Once that was all taken care of, he took a trip to Japan and watched some truly inspiring theatre and fell deeply in love with Japan. He's planning to go back as soon as he can. But right now, he's recovering from surgery on his neck. Nothing to worry about. He had a bone spur pinching on a nerve that was giving him constant pain. He'll soon be back playing hockey and goofing around.
June 17 2017
Wow. Has it really been almost two years since our last update?
So, what's been happening? While it has gone fast, it's also been busy. Anthony added 8 credits to his film/tv list and directed a new play "A Good Way Out" by Cara Cunningham, which was extremely well reviewed.He got to work on the Lifetime produced "Who Killed Jonbenet?" with Michel Gill. He did a nice little scene on "Once Upon A Time", and a nicer and bigger scene on "Rogue". He did scenes on "Shooter" , "Beyond" and "Timeless", which were sadly lost on the cutting room floor. He also got some nice work on "Drink, Slay, Love" (not yet released) and the pilot of the new series "Ghost Wars".
Anthony just went in front of the stills camera with photo master Arjun Mallik for some new headshots. We'll post them here very soon.
July 16 2015
Summer is treating Anthony very well.

Anthony is very proud of this show; not only of the actors and set/light design, but also the technical elements that went into it. A leg gets cut off on stage! And there are other surprises in store.
What are folks saying about the show? Here are a few quotes:
"Director Anthony F. Ingram has brought passion and depth to this powerful drama that has us laughing at a quip one moment, sighing sadly the next and then plunging us shockingly into a devastating revelation." - David C. Jones, Out-TV
"With the help of Drew Facey’s elegantly destroyed set and Lauchlin Johnston’s evocative lighting, Anthony F. Ingram’s production conjures a startling period." - Colin Thomas, the Straight
February 15 2015
Rehearsals are underway at Pacific Theatre for Matthew Lopez's startling play "The Whipping Man".
Anthony is busy directing Tom Pickett, Carl Kennedy and Giovanni Mocibob, and doing the occasional promotion interview.
Here's the first one published published by Keri Langley in Light Magazine.
January 13 2015
Welcome to a new year!
To catch up on what Anthony has been doing, we have to go back to last fall when he spent 2 months in Calgary working at Vertigo Theatre on Aaron Bushkowski's new adaptation of Raymond Chandler's "Farewell, My Lovely" - the classic Phillip Marlowe 'hard-boiled' detective thriller. This show gets a remount this coming March at the Arts Club Granville Island stage. You can buy your tickets now.
But, before that, Anthony spends February in the director's chair at Pacific Theatre. The show is a play by American Playwright Matthew Lopez called "The Whipping Man" and takes place in Richmond Virginia just days after the surrender of the Confenderate Army - which just happens to coincide with the Jewish Passover celebration. A Jewish Confederate soldier returns to his home and finds two of his family's slaves grappling with how the new freedom that has been won for them will change their lives.
The production runs February 27 - March 21 , check the website for show times and tickets.

Anthony's production of The
Seafarer at Pacific Theatre continues to get rave reviews:
From The Huffington Post:
"Director Anthony F. Ingram has taken five fine actors and created an
ensemble performance that may be the best production this season in
Vancouver. Ingram directs the play with a touch that allows the comedy
to flow and makes shocking the moments of terrible revelations and
vicious threats."
From the Greater Vancouver Professional Theatre Alliance blog:
"(D)irector Anthony F. Ingram pulls it off with skill and aplomb.The performances from his entire cast are top notch and generally the pacing is adeptly handled and holds the audiences’ interest."
"The acting is exceptional, the casting faultless, and every other facet of the Pacific Theatre’s production has been similarly produced with exemption.This is a heartfelt message to the Vancouver theatre goers- go and see this play and experience something artistically inspiring."

Anthony's production of The Seafarer at Pacific Theatre is garnering rave reviews. We've excerpted some of them here. Check out the links for full reviews.
"On the surface, it is the tale of two brothers and three friends
gathered over the holidays for a friendly game of poker. At its depths,
it is a brilliant exploration of the human condition and family
dynamics within the context of an underemployed blue-collar family in a
poor fishing village in Ireland." | Gregg Baker, The MB Herald
"Director Anthony F. Ingram’s creative and spiritual energy is evident in the staging of this story of redemption and in the nuanced acting performances and fully developed themes from Conor McPherson’s script. The actors’ movements on and offstage draw the audience into occupying time and space with the characters. ... It
makes an impact when one sits in the tension of messy broken lives at
their turning point, integrating the truth-telling in this hard-hitting
work of art at a personal level, and sharing the experience of the
journey with those aboard." | Deanna Pfortmueller, The MB Herald
"The actors dealt with the material in spectacular fashion, driving you from laughter to disgust to despair from moment to moment.
... Regarding the set decoration, a replica of an aging, bachelor's
Irish cottage, I have to say they nailed it. Peeling paint, Gaelic
Athletic Association Poster, and Sacred Heart of Jesus on the wall.
Perfect. Man slumped in a heap on the floor. Takes me back. Before I sat down, I had already been transported." | Helena, The South Granville Inhabiter
"The Seafarer shines a light on the downtrodden aspects of Irish
society. Bad luck, alcoholism, and poverty marks the derelict company,
punctuated by copious amounts of swearing. You can practically smell the
stench off Ron Reed’s turn as querulous, recently-blinded Richard. But
it’s his brother, Sharky, who is at the heart of this moral tale, and
John Emmet Tracy shows off his turn of portraying a despicable character
while garnering our sympathies at the same time. ... The script gives each character ample time to shine, and the way they played off of each other was a joy to watch." | Cecilia Lu, VancityBuzz
"The actors are powerful, some of the best in the city. John
Emmet Tracey carries the weight of Sharkey’s failure and shame so deeply
that when he tells one story about getting into a bar fight his sense
of humiliation is profoundly effective without being showy. Ron Reed is
tragic as the happy blind drinker and he makes you laugh as you pity
him. He is dirty, disgusting and mean-spirited but so happy it’s a
delightful performance of a profoundly tragic man. Andrew McNee as
usual charms and he is the very best at saying the line text while
chuckling. Tim Dixon is also very effective as the bumbling Ivan... I have never felt so much joy during a show.
As the drama gets to its end the sense of conclusive happiness made for
a very powerful end to the theatre evening." | David C. Jones, The Charlesbois Post
"This intense story by Irish playwright Conor McPherson and directed
by Anthony F. Ingram is sure to become one of this year’s favorite
productions." | Ariane Colenbrander, Vancouverscape
"Saw this show on Saturday and it was simply outstanding. 5
extraordinarily gifted and experienced actors at the utter top of their
respective games, and a script that fairly crackled with equal measures
of humour, pathos and tension. We felt almost voyeuristic, peering
through the windows and watching men attempt to relate to each other
with the burden of their intertwined past lives burbling just beneath
the surface. Ron Reed, as Richard, gave an utterly brilliant
performance in a very challenging role, but the entire cast were
excellent. One of the strongest plays we've attended in years. And yes,
the language is strong, but entirely authentic and contextual, and no
worse than what would be heard on the B-Line after 8 PM. See this show."
| Ivan Van Spronsen, Audience Response (Facebook)
"There’s wit and vivacity in McPherson’s writing, and his
delivery of the vernacular of Dublin’s underclass is delicious. The
roles he’s written must be like blue cheese to actors: extreme, kind of disgusting, and irresistible. Under Anthony F. Ingram’s direction, this cast of five dives in with gusto—and considerable skill." | Colin Thomas, The Georgia Straight
"There is still some fine acting going on in this production. As the
blind brother Richard, Ron Reed is almost unrecognizable as he fully
embraces the confusion of the newly blinded man as much as he embraces
his first sip of booze in the morning. Tim Dixon is delightfully
buffoonish as Ivan and Andrew McNee brings the necessary aloofness to
Nicky. It is in the pairing of John Emmet Tracy as Sharky and John Innes
as Mr Lockhart though that director Anthony F Ingram gets his biggest
bang. As Mr Lockhart’s identity is revealed late in the first act, the dynamic between them is at times mesmerizing." | Mark Robins, Vancouver Presents

February 2014
Anthony is directing Conor McPherson's dark Irish comedy The Seafarer
at Pacific Theatre in Vancouver. He describes it as "Christmas eve on the wrong side of the tracks in Dublin, with five drunk Irish-men playing poker - and one of these ne'er-do-wells just happens to be The Devil!"
The show features a stellar cast including two of last year's Jessie Award Winners: John Emmet Tracy and Andrew McNee, along with John Innes, Tim Dixon and Pacific Theatre's Artistic Director Rod Reed.
The Seafarer opens Friday March 7 and runs until the 29th - a great way to celebrate all that's Irish around St Patrick's Day!
Tickets are available through Pacific Theatre's website: click here
“The Seafarer breaks through our secular smugness and manages to
make the small gestures of connection, charity and change feel like true
resurrection.”
- John Lahr, The New Yorker

Anthony will be playing the title role in Anton Chekov's Uncle Vanya, produced by Blackbird Theatre at the Culch, this coming December.
"Vancouver's finest presenter of classical theatre is back with Anton Chekhov's heart-wrenching Uncle Vanya –
a timeless 19th century masterwork rich in improbable love, yearning,
and folly. Expect the assured direction, performance, and design which
have become synonymous with Blackbird Theatre and brought them multiple
Jessie awards and nominations since 2006.
“Wow! Blackbird Theatre was created specifically to keep the classics
of the stage front and centre and, boy, does it succeed” —The Vancouver
Sun

A comedy of confusion and hilarity between two couples - one long-time married pair - and the other about to take the plunge. Relatively Speaking will delight anyone who understands how mischief and clarity don't always mix!
The show will open October 30, 2013. Tickets on sale soon!
Also: You can now read Anthony's semi-regular blog postings at "In The Interval", Occasional thoughts on life, theatre, and life in the theatre.
April 29 2013
Anthony is currently playing the lead role in the Canadian Premiere of Bill Cain's How to Write a New Book for the Bible at Pacific Theatre.
Heartfelt and hilarious, the story of an aging mother’s peculiarities
and a son’s flawed devotion. A celebration of what holds a family
together, suffused with subtle theatrical magic.
The show opens April 26 and runs until May 25. You can purchase your tickest from Pacific Theatre here.
Here's what the critcs are saying:
"Anthony F. Ingram, who plays Bill, is unafraid of his character’s petty selfishness. And Ingram brings an active intelligence to the stage that’s always a pleasure to watch."
"Ingram offers a man full of the contradictions we have with those we love: frustration, affection, anger, irritation and compassion. But underlying his character’s exasperation at his mother’s furtive cigarette smoking and obsession with TV sports, Ingram shows us the deep and abiding love he has for his mother."
December 2012
Anthony recently finished performing as Dr Faustus in a "script-in-hand" production of Wittenberg by David Davalos at Pacific Theatre. Here's what the critics had to say...
Dr. Faustus, Hamlet, and Martin Luther walk into a bar… and the rest is history. Sort of.
“Anthony F. Ingram's Faustus is the quintessential irreverent, anti-establishment university professor. The character could easily come off cold and manipulative, but Ingram brings great warmth and charisma to the part.” ~ LauraMurray PR
"Anthony F. Ingram as Dr Faustus is dazzling, he plays the perfect professor and psychiatrist devoted to reason and the indulgence of earthly desires. His presence is powerful on stage and Ingram really captures this philosophical and hedonistic character, while keeping the audience simultaneously thoughtful and laughing." ~ Erin Jane , reviewvancouver.org
"Dr Faustus makes a seriously charismatic professor. You gotta love a Professor that prescribes medicinal cures for existential distress and even makes time to perform a weekly gig at the Bunghole. I was also happy to see the devil make an appearance. Who’da thought he could sing like an angel? Kudos to Anthony F. Ingram (Faustus)" ~ BeingEmme (http://emmerogers.com/)
