She\u2019s assisting props designer Karine Cusson on a new production of <i>Peter Pan the Musical,<\/i> and they\u2019ve been assigned \u201cLa F\u00e9e Clochette,\u201d as the iconic sprite is known in French. She tells me she has rewatched all the Tinkerbell made-for-TV movies \u2013 who knew there were any \u2013 and she\u2019s struck by Tink\u2019s penchant for bricolage. \u201cShe tries to build things out of random objects to create something useful,\u201d she explains. \u201cShe\u2019ll create a car out of nuts and just build something out of trash.\u201d As someone with a lifelong love of making things with her hands, Ide-Bergeron can relate.<\/p>\n<p>Childhood summers spent with her grandmother in Bayfield, Ontario often included a family trip to the nearby Stratford Festival, and she credits a 2015 production of <i>Taming of the Shrew<\/i> with sparking the idea that she could combine her love of visual arts with theatre to make a career. After a couple of years at the Coll\u00e8ge Lionel-Groulx in Sainte-Th\u00e9r\u00e8se, she was admitted to the National Theatre School in Montreal. That\u2019s where she lives now, working, somewhat unusually, in both French and English theatre. Doing the best job in the world, as she puts it: \u201cI get to do craft and art. To create a magical piece with a bunch of new people?\u201d Nothing better.<\/p>\n<p>English and French theatre practice can be quite different, even down to how they handle props. Often, in English theatre, one designer is assigned both set and props, whereas in Qu\u00e9bec, it\u2019s more common for props to get their own, dedicated designer. \u201cI\u2019ve been called to do prop design because the set designer says specifically they don\u2019t want to do \u2018the little things\u2019,\u201d Ide-Bergeron says with a laugh. She designs set and costumes too, but she has an evident affinity for props. Even her student set design project at [National Theatre School] had a prop-ish quality. At first glance, it was a kitchen, but it was full of details that transformed in unexpected ways: a spice rack became a ladder, for example, and a pantry door turned into a bathroom. Since her schooldays, her eye for detail has only increased. She shares that recently, she was watching a hospital show on TV with her mom, and she noticed all the binders on the administrator\u2019s office shelves were empty.<\/p>\n<p>Ide-Bergeron is inspired by multi-disciplinary theatre designers like C\u00e9dric Lord, who runs Le Salon Particulier in Montreal, a combo of woodshop, rehearsal space, art gallery, and gathering spot. \u201cMy dream office would have prop storage, all the tools I need, a lot of everything,\u201d she fantasizes. \u201cI\u2019m a maximalist for props and a minimalist in every other aspect of my life.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That minimalism is no doubt influenced by her commitment to sustainable design. \u201cI love talking about eco-design,\u201d she enthuses, \u201cI\u2019m a city girl, but I feel the most alive when I\u2019m in the forest, hiking.\u201d At NTS, she took a class with sustainable practices leader Anne-Catherine Lebeau, which led to a job as a researcher at Lebeau\u2019s organization \u00c9cosc\u00e9no, a company that consults with arts companies on how to reduce their environmental footprint. That experience opened her eyes to the many wasteful aspects of conventional theatre production, with its resource-intensive, short-term builds that get tossed in the dumpster the day the show closes. Now she thinks about environmental impact right from the beginning of her process, researching sustainable materials, breaking her design down into reusable structures, and trolling through thrift stores and markets \u201cwith a prop in mind, thinking, how can I do stuff with the things I already have?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In the future, Ide-Bergeron would love to travel for work, and hopes to expand her practice to include circus and dance, more costume design, and in general, \u201clearning as many things as I can.\u201d She is currently looking into paper-making, for example, which she plans to pursue during an upcoming trip to Japan. She is travelling with her Siminovitch mentor, Sonoyo Nishikawa, who promises to introduce her to theatre-makers there. They\u2019ll be accompanied by 2015 Siminovitch Laureate Annick Bissonni\u00e8re, another connection made since Ide-Bergeron was named Prot\u00e9g\u00e9 by Nishikawa.<\/p>\n<p>She relishes the opportunity to spend more time with Nishikawa in Japan, and during a two-week residency in Banff this fall, offered by the Siminovitch Foundation in partnership with the National Arts Centre and the Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity. She recalls: \u201cI remember seeing [Nishikawa\u2019s] name in the credits for a show I\u2019d been hired for, and thinking, that sounds like a Japanese name, and getting really excited. She was on my way home from the theatre; sometimes I\u2019d give her rides, and we got to talk. When I found out she was nominated I was extremely excited for her, but I never thought she\u2019d name me. I\u2019m a lot less shy to contact her now. We went to a few plays, and now we\u2019re planning our trip.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>People are a big part of what Ide-Bergeron loves about theatre. When asked how her collaborators might describe her, her thoughts circle back to Tinkerbell. \u201cI\u2019m good at problem-solving with the means that I have,\u201d she muses, \u201cbut I like learning new things. I\u2019m always tinkering.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><i>Mayumi Ide-Bergeron was selected as&nbsp;Siminovitch Theatre Foundation Prot\u00e9g\u00e9 by 2024 Laureate Sonoyo Nishikawa.<\/i><\/p>\n<p><i>Vanessa Porteous is a theatre artist, filmmaker, and writer based in Calgary.
