Healy's first season in 2010/11 featured many artists long associated with the company, such as Sonja Mills, Evalyn Parry, Sky Gilbert and 2boys.tv, while also announcing some new directions for the company. For the first production of the season, Healy helmed the English-Canadian premiere of Sarah Kane's play "Blasted". Rhubarb! returned with a new festival director, Laura Nanni, and featured, for the first time, off-site performance in public spaces. Buddies also embarked on two major national tours of productions from its recent repertoire, "Agokwe" and "The Silicone Diaries". The company took home five Dora Mavor Moore Awards (for outstanding production, lighting design, set design, sound design and direction) for its production of "Blasted". This year also saw a 25 per cent growth in attendance for the company's main stage shows and festivals which included sold-out runs of "Blasted", "The Silicone Diaries" and "Spin".
