Brenley penned an adaptation of The Waves, based on the infamous novel by Virginia Woolf, which premiered at the Toronto Fringe, and received the Patron’s Pick award and was a Best of Fringe selection. Other select credits include assistant director, under Susan Ferley at The Grand Theatre in London, ON, on the Canadian premiere of The Great Gatsby, as well as the musical Hair. Other credits include assistant director on the Canadian premiere of Parade for Studio 180 and Acting Upstage Theatre; and director of Mo & Jess Kill Susie, which played a completely sold out run in Toronto last summer. Brenley has worked for Stage West, Drayton Entertainment, The Royal Manitoba Theatre Centre, Theatre Aquarius, and The Grand Theatre (to name a few). Brenley is currently developing a new play, entitled 588, about the most successful all-female bomber squad during WWII.
