The time has come to announce our 2025 Wildfire National Playwrighting Competition winners!

Our first runner up is Jackson Thompson, with Naked Frankenstein!

Jackson Lee Thompson is a divisor, playwright, actor and director from Edmonton Alberta. They have performed in Sorry not Sorry, U.I.G, Rapid Fire and Shame!’s improv ensembles. They founded Out of Body Performing Arts with Baird Duncan where they are the Director of Public Relations and production manager for the Out of Body’s Review Series and Cold Reads. They have co-produced many original and devised productions in Out of Body including: The Waves (2022, 2024), BOO! Cabaret (2023-ongoing), My Dinner with Arby (2024), and The Public Domain Festival (2025).

Two doctors contend with artificial life and loneliness. 25 people are denied death. A guy getting a vasectomy lands an awful job. A woman discovers she is, in fact, a saint.

Congratulations Jackson, we can’t wait to work with you more on this piece!

For a period of time, every year on my birthday, I’d invite whoever was free out to the Bear, and get such joy out of watching people from different walks of my life meet each other for the first time. Even though it’s fairly basic fare, it holds such a special place in my heart!”
