Marti Kathleen Maraden (Template:Nee Frederickson; June 22, 1945 – August 31, 2023) was a Canadian actor and director. Born in El Centro, California, she immigrated to Canada in 1968, and became a leading actor at the Stratford Festival in the 1970s.[1]
Maraden was artistic director of the National Arts Centre English Theatre in Ottawa from 1997 to 2006.[2] While in this position, and arising from her activities in that role, the National Arts Centre co-founded the Magnetic North Theatre Festival.[3][4]
In 2006 Maraden was appointed to succeed Richard Monette as an artistic director of the Stratford Shakespeare Theatre in Stratford, Ontario. Unlike previous artistic directors at Stratford, Maraden was a member of a three-person artistic team, which included co-directors Des McAnuff and Don Shipley until creative differences forced the three to end their working relationship.[5]
Directed the play Rexy at Neptune Theatre 2015. Maraden died of organ failure following emergency surgery on August 31, 2023, while visiting family in Uppsala, Sweden. She was 78.[6][7]
