Since its inception in 2013, the Cole Foundation Mentorship for Emerging Translators<\/strong> (formerly Cole Competition for Emerging Translators) has been mentoring the next generation of translators from French to English<\/strong>. PWM, with the expert guidance of acclaimed translator Maureen Labont\u00e9<\/strong> and in partnership with the Cole Foundation has built a program that mentors emerging translators through every stage of the translation process. The competition awards the selected translators a $1000 honorarium<\/strong> and an eight month mentorship<\/strong> with Maureen Labont\u00e9. This program has ushered in an exciting ongoing discussion on the challenges and rewards of translating work for the stage.<\/p>\n

In 2017 two projects were selected: Translator John Jack Paterson<\/strong> has been working on well-known Quebec playwright, Daniel Danis\u2019 TYA play (12 and up), Kiwi<\/em><\/strong>. There will be a reading on March 29th at 7PM in PWM\u2019s Studio and in Vancouver in June 2018. Translator Jennie Herbin<\/strong> is working on Catherine Chabot\u2019s Table rase<\/em><\/strong> which was a huge hit here in Montreal and on tour. There is an English production in the works for 2018.<\/p>\n

Playwright and librettist, Alexis Diamond<\/strong>, was the first winner of the Cole competition for Emerging Translators in 2013. She translated Marie-Claude Verdier\u2019s Je n\u2019y suis plus. I\u2019m Not Here<\/strong><\/em> was selected to be part of the 2016 SummerWorks Performance Festival in Toronto, the Voil\u00e0 Festival in the United Kingdom and had a run here in Montreal at Salle Fred-Barry. Alexis has gone on to translate Pascal Bruellmans, TYA play Vip\u00e9rine \/ Amaryllis<\/em>, Pascale St-Onge\u2018s play, Tarmac<\/em>, for the National Theatre School and has contributed to translations for Cirque du Soleil\u2019s latest touring show written by Olivier Kemeid among others.<\/p>\n

Well-known Montreal theatre artist, Johanna Nutter<\/strong>, was awarded the 2014 Cole Prize. She translated Chlore, by Nicolas Michon and Florence Longpr\u00e9. The translation, Chlorine<\/strong><\/em>, was produced by Johanna\u2019s theatre company, creature\/creature, at Centaur Theatre in October 2016 as part of Centaur\u2019s Brave New Look series. Johanna Nutter has recently been chosen to be part of the new CEAD-PWM Formation en traduction program. She will be working on texts by Guillaume Corbeil and Annick Lefebvre.<\/p>\n

The Baklawa Recipe<\/strong><\/em> by Pascale Rafie directed by PWM Artistic Director, Emma Tibaldo, premiered at the Centaur Theatre in January 2018. It was translated by Melissa Bull<\/strong>, the recipient of the 2015 Cole Foundation Competition for Emerging Translators. Melissa is a writer, poet and editor. She has translated prose work by Fanny Arcand, Kim Thuy and Marie-Sissi Labr\u00e8che. Her first novel will be published this spring at Anvil press. She is already working on her second translation for the stage, the award-winning Qu\u00e9b\u00e9cois play, J\u2019accuse<\/em> by Annick Lefebvre.<\/p>\n

Jordan Arsenault<\/strong> was the 2016 recipient of the Cole Foundation Prize. He translated Eric Noel\u2019s Faire des enfants. His translation, River Bed<\/em><\/strong>, was given a public reading at Playwrights\u2019 Workshop Montr\u00e9al in November 2017. There has been interest in the play from theatres in Toronto. Jordan is doing a Masters in Translation at McGill University.<\/p>\n
