SEEKING
DIRECTORS FOR A DIRECTOR/PLAYWRIGHT EXCHANGE 



Playwrights Guild of Canada and Playwrights Theatre Centre will be
hosting a Director/Playwright Exchange
in Vancouver, BC on the afternoon of Sunday, October 5th, 2014. 



The Director/Playwright Exchange is a new initiative of Playwrights Guild of
Canada inspired by the Dramatist Guild of America. Ten directors and
ten playwrights will be chosen to attend, and all of the participants will
have an opportunity to talk briefly about what kind of work inspires them
and how they like to collaborate artistically. 

  If you are a director interested in
participating in this event, please send us TWO paragraphs of writing, no
longer than 250 words each. With the first paragraph, provide a brief Biography that outlines your
professional accomplishments to date (this will be shared with the other
participants). With the second paragraph, provide a personal Statement of Purpose that describes
your artistic passions. Please write in the first person, and offer a window
into your own unique artistic point of view. Why are you a director? What sort
of work excites you? How do you like to work? With whom? Etc. 



Participation is strictly limited to 10 directors. Interested parties should
forward their information to Rebecca Burton, Membership and Professional
Contracts Manager, Playwrights Guild of Canada (rebecca at playwrightsguild.ca),
by Tuesday, September 2nd,
2014. Accepted directors will be notified shortly thereafter.
