For her most recent production, Betroffenheit, she joined forces with innovative playwright/performer Jonathon Young. Internationally heralded, The Globe and Mail claimed it is, “...a harrowing representation of trauma and suffering — but it’s also a stunning testament to what can be made when life undergoes a pretty strange and irreducible process – when it’s turned into art… Betroffenheit is rare and staggering.” The work catapulted Crystal’s career into another level of awareness and critical acclaim.

In the Making is an immersive journey inside the creative process. The documentary series follows host Sean O’Neill across the country and around the world alongside some of Canada’s leading artists as they bring new work to life and face pivotal moments of risk and reward.
