2017: CANADA PLAYS

In anticipation of Canada’s 150th anniversary in 2017, Theatre Calgary is seeking bold, new plays about national ideas and what it means to be Canadian. Several projects will be selected for workshop development and exploration within FUSE: The Enbridge Play Development Program, with the goal of discovering a play to premiere as the centerpiece of our celebratory season in 2017.

We invite professional playwrights from coast to coast to submit their big ideas! Both completed scripts and exciting project proposals welcome! What are the surprising national stories that need to be told on stage? What does it mean to be “Canadian?” Where have we been; where are we now; where are we going? We are seeking large-scale, ambitious projects with a maximum of originality and imagination—like our beautiful country.
