About the Gros Morne Playwrights’ Residency<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Gros Morne Playwrights\u2019 Residency is a dual-lingual residency that welcomes writers from across Canada to Gros Morne, Newfoundland and Labrador. This unique dual-lingual residency takes place at the Bonne Bay Aquarium & Research Station in Norris Point, located in Gros Morne National Park, Newfoundland and Labrador.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

English language playwrights should apply through PWM and French language playwrights through the CEAD. Applications will be considered from across the country; three English and three French applications will be selected. A seventh spot is reserved for a playwright from Newfoundland and Labrador working in English.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The residency will be led by Fatma Sarah Elkashef, Artistic Director of PWM, Aki Matsushita, dramaturg at PWM, Sasha Dion, dramaturg at CEAD, and Robert Chafe, Artistic Director of Artistic Fraud. The residency is an opportunity for solo writing, punctuated with moments of exchange and reading work in progress as a group. The host dramaturgs are available to read your work and engage in one-on-one conversations centred around your process and questions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Gros Morne Playwrights\u2019 Residency provides playwrights with transportation, accommodation at Bonne Bay Aquarium & Research Station (private bedroom and bathroom), meals, an honorarium of $800.00, and dramaturgical support.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

PWM welcomes all applications. While recognizing that the identity of each person is fundamentally plural, and multidimensional, we strongly encourage applications from artists who are: Indigenous (First Nations, M\u00e9tis, and Inuit), Black, POC, racialized (including recent immigrants), 2SLGBTQQIPAA+, neurodivergent, disabled, living with chronic illness and\/or chronic pain. PWM is strongly committed to supporting a wide range of cultural identities and lived experiences, therefore we encourage applicants to self-identify in their application if they are comfortable doing so.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
