Deadline extended to October 18!<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The translation of new work for the stage is a core part of Playwrights\u2019 Workshop Montr\u00e9al\u2019s (PWM) programming. Since its inception in 2013, the Mentorat pour traductrices et traducteurs \u00e9mergents de la Fondation Cole<\/b><\/a> (formerly Cole Competition for Emerging Translators) has been guiding the next generation of translators from French into English.\u00a0<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

With the expert guidance of acclaimed translator Maureen Labont\u00e9<\/a> and in partnership with the Fondation Cole<\/a>, PWM has built a program that mentors emerging translators through every stage of the process. The successful applicant to this year\u2019s mentorship program will receive a $1,000 honorarium and an eight-month mentorship with Maureen Labont\u00e9 which includes a workshop with actors and a public reading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WHO CAN APPLY?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To be eligible, emerging translators must have completed at least one translation which has received a public reading, publication or production. Because the focus is on developing translators, the applicant must not have done more than three translations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

WITH WHAT PLAY(S)?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Before applying for the Mentorship, emerging translators must choose the play they wish to translate and contact the playwright for permission: Establishing a connection to the play and the playwright in advance means that the applicant is already invested in the proposed work and would be in a position to begin work immediately following the announcement of the selected project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Translations must be from French into English only. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Full-length scripts, one acts or theatre for young people are all welcome. Please note, our expertise does not extend to the translation of musicals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SOUTIEN FOURNI<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The recipient of the program will receive $1000 honorarium, dramaturgical support from renowned translator, Maureen Labont\u00e9, and a translation workshop with actors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
