AMPLIFIER offers a long-term exploratory creation process to a playwright who identifies as Indigenous (First Nations, Métis, and Inuit), Black, POC, racialized, including 1st or 2nd generation immigrant artists (as defined in the Conseil des Arts de Montréal’s glossary), working creatively in one of Canada’s official languages. This program offers artistic and financial support to one working* playwright residing on the island of Montréal, including dramaturgical collaboration, a professional workshop with actors, and a creation production residency which culminates in a laboratory presentation.

AMPLIFIER seeks to foster dialogue between Montréal’s English and French speaking theatre communities, as well as intercultural exchanges and greater representation for culturally diverse artists within the theatre community and on Montréal’s stages.

In order to support artists creating in French and artists creating in English, CAM and La Serre offer this program alternately with the Centre des auteurs dramatiques (CEAD) in French (Résidence Voix Théâtrales), and with PWM in English. The 2025-2026 edition is intended for artists working in the English language. PWM supports English language minority artists in Quebec, therefore the work with PWM will take place in English. Applications are to be submitted in English.

Please refer to the PWM website for more details about what this partnership includes, program eligibility criteria, and other conditions.

Only registered members can apply for jobs.
