DEADLINE EXTENDED

 

SEEKING ARTISTIC COLLABORATORS and PLAYWRIGHTS for a PLAYWRIGHTS/ARTISTIC
COLLABORATORS’ EXCHANGE 



Playwrights Guild of Canada and Saskatchewan
Playwrights Centre are hosting an Artistic
Collaborators/Playwright Exchange in
Saskatoon, Saskatchewan on Sunday, May 4th, 2014 from 5-7 pm at Village
Guitars. 



Ten artistic collaborators (e.g. directors, dramaturgs, designers, composers)
and ten playwrights will be chosen to attend this event. Forging new
relationships and networking opportunities, all participants will be invited to
talk briefly about what kind of work inspires them and how they like to
collaborate artistically. 

The Exchange is a new initiative of Playwrights Guild
of Canada inspired by the Dramatist Guild of America.    

  

Interested parties should submit TWO paragraphs (no longer than
250 words each). The first should be a brief Biography, outlining your professional accomplishments to
date. The second should be a personal Statement of Purpose that shares your artistic passions and working
methodologies. These should be written in the first-person, and they should
offer a window into your own unique artistic point of view. Why are you a
director/designer/dramaturg/composer/playwright? Why do you work in theatre? What kind of
work excites you? How do you like to work? Etc. 



Participation is limited to ten artistic collaborators and will be determined
on a “first-come, first-served” basis. Interested participants should forward
their information to Rebecca Burton, Membership and Professional Contracts
Manager, Playwrights Guild of Canada (rebecca at playwrightsguild.ca), by April
27, 2014.
