Wesley J. Colford is an actor/playwright from Sydney, Nova ScotiA. Having recently graduated from Sheridan College, he is currently studying acting at George Brown College in Toronto. In the past three years, Wesley has written four full-length plays (including two musicals), nine one-acts, and eight short plays for children. His most successful script to date, excuse Me, Would You Like to Buy a Bar?, was the 2010 winner of Tarragon Theatres Under 20 by Under 20s Playwriting Competition, and received a brief workshop at Tarragon under the direction of Andrew Lamb. From there the play was expanded and later produced as part of the PAprika Festival at Tarragon, the success of which led to further expansion and a sold-out run at the 2011 Toronto Fringe Festival. Wesleys first full-length play, Pizza Passion, was produced in 2010 as part of the Cape Breton Stage Companys summer season to great artistic and financial acclaim. He has since had several plays produced by the CBSC, including Too Too Sullied, the Collector, the Wakowski Brothers, and his most recent one-act, Shadowplay.
