RBC Tarragon Under 30 National Playwriting Competition


Share


Since 1970, Tarragon Theatre has been a leader in the development of new Canadian plays, introducing theatre audiences to talented home-grown playwrights, and contributing countless plays to the Canadian canon. As part of our mandate to seek out and nurture new and vital voices, Tarragon Theatre, with the generous support of RBC Foundation, is pleased to announce our inaugural Under 30 National Playwriting Competition. The purpose of this competition is to offer Canadian playwrights under the age of 30 the opportunity to receive financial support to further develop their play, benefit from working with artists skilled in new play development, and gain national recognition for their writing. The winner of this competition will receive a cash award of $3,000, and the opportunity to participate in Tarragon's annual Play Reading Week in 2010.

All application packages must arrive at Tarragon Theatre by Friday, April 30, 2010 at 5:00 pm.

Please read the Contest Guidelines carefully. Incomplete applications will not be accepted..
