Every year many of the Toronto area scripts in the Sears Ontario Drama Festival are new student written plays, and this is Tarragon's area of expertise. The Young Directors Project is offered in association with the Sears Ontario Drama Festival to help train young directors on how to develop new scripts with young playwrights. The Young Directors Project will meet on two Sundays in November, 10am - 5pm, and TTC tickets for transportation to and from the Tarragon Theatre will be provided.

Course Dates:
Sunday, November 13 and Sunday, November 20, 10am–5pm

Past Guests have included: Richard Rose, Daniel MacIvor, Morwyn Brebner and Andrea Ramoldi.

I was able to grow as a director so much simply because I felt so much more prepared in the rehearsal room. Knowing what to focus on within a scene and the script gave me more confidence in my abilities. Katie Corbridge
