Richard Rose (born January 18, 1955) is a Canadian theatre director, most noted as the former artistic director of the Toronto theatre companies Necessary Angel and Tarragon Theatre.
Background
He was born in Maracaibo, Venezuela, and raised in Sudbury, Ontario. He studied theatre at York University.
Career
He was the founding artistic director of Necessary Angel in 1978. The company's first production, Aeschylus's Oresteia, was not well-regarded by critics but telegraphed the company's high ambitions.
Necessary Angel rose to critical and popular favour with the breakout success of John Krizanc's play Tamara in 1981, which won numerous Dora Mavor Moore Awards in 1982 including Best Director for Rose. Following the success of Tamara, he collaborated with Thom Sokoloski, the artistic director of Theatre Autumn Leaf, to create Autumn Angel Repertory, who won the Dora for Outstanding New Play in 1984 for Mein.
In 1989 he attracted acclaim for his theatrical adaptation of Michael Ondaatje's novel Coming Through Slaughter, cowritten with Ondaatje and D.D. Kugler. In 1992, Rose and Kugler debuted another stage adaptation, of Timothy Findley's novel Not Wanted on the Voyage.
He also directed the short film Giant Steps, which screened at the 1992 Toronto International Film Festival, and served for three years as director of the youth company at the Stratford Festival.
In 2002 he was appointed artistic director of Tarragon. His role with the company was marked by brief controversy in 2012 when Michael Healey resigned as the company's playwright in residence after Rose declined to produce his play Proud, but Rose remained with the company until his retirement in 2020.
