Not many of us can say that we found our calling at an early age. Ryan Singh first stepped into the "entertainment" spotlight in his homeland - Guyana, South America at just 6 years old. The stage for his life's calling was set when he stepped out and performed poetry in what was to be one of many national performing competitions. Next, Singh moved into larger roles and was immediately cast in local plays that took him on regular tours throughout his homeland. In 1993 at age 16, Ryan immigrated to Canada and focused on realizing his dream of becoming an actor. Recognizing early on that opportunities in Canada were limited for diverse performers, he began developing his own projects. Producing for stage, television and film Ryan created opportunities for himself and others. Forming a strong community network he started writing, directing, producing, and advocating for the Arts.In 2006, Ryan formed the not-for-profit organization Roots International Arts Theatre, Inc. through which more than 6 productions were produced in Canada and Guyana. Roots Theatre has sponsored several workshops over the years including the notable Tom Todoroff Workshop, and Talent Unleashed. Roots Theatre continues to do work in the community today.In April 2013 Ryan Singh produced a short autobiographical documentary - MOM. It is the story about a man who reflects on the tradition of absent fathers in his family and how he wants to break that trend as he prepares to be a father. "MOM" featuring his real-life mother and wife captured audience attention at the premiere screening at ReelWorld Film Festival. This 9 min short received accolades as it explored betrayal, heartbreak and undying love. Show less «
