Toronto native, Kate Conway, plays a teenage girl coming of age and coming out to her single father in the web series Out With Dad. She never imagined being part of a project that would lead to the kind of success she and the cast have had over the last two years. “I never expected it would reach as many people as we have. It’s an important show, especially considering what’s been going on in the news like the gay marriage debate and problems with teenage bullying,” she said. Out With Dad received a number of awards at the Los Angeles Web Series Festival, including Outstanding Drama Series, Ensemble Cast, Directing, Writing and Cinematography. The recognition earned them a spot in the Marseille Web Fest, considered the Emmys of the web series world, set for Oct. 14-15 in the French city.
