Goals<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The PWM + MAI joint support is aimed at artists encountering structural and systemic obstacles to their full participation in the arts because of their claimed identity and\/or perceived identity in society. The program strives to eliminate barriers to their full participation in the arts by offering financial allocations and guidance that are adapted to the learning and creative needs and desires of each participant. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The PWM + MAI joint support is part of the MAI\u2019s Alliance program. The program includes three streams: general program, joint supports and punctual supports. If you want more information on the general program<\/strong>, punctual supports <\/strong>and\/or other joint support programs<\/strong>, please visit the MAI website<\/a> for specific guidelines relative to each stream.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Working with a dramaturg at PWM<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Dramaturgie<\/strong> is an exploration of all the elements that make a work, how they are brought together to create meaning, and what the process for developing that work might be. PWM primarily works on projects that centre text and narrative but also on pieces where text and storytelling are not the primary components or concerns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PWM\u2019s work centres the artist and our dynamic collaborative process is tailored to meet the needs of their project. We listen deeply to understand who an artist is, what they are making and how they want their work to evolve. We offer feedback and reflection through questions and conversation and often accompany the artists from draft to draft or iteration to iteration. We work one-on-one, but also through workshops and residencies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PWM understands that the work of playwriting and performance making is not created in a vacuum, but that it interacts with society. Theatre can be impactful, and therefore PWM considers not only how a piece is made and by whom, but also its effect and meaning beyond the walls of its creation studio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
