Is your School or Community Theatre working on a Canadian Play?
2022 is the Year of the Playwright and PGC is celebrating with a CONTEST!!! In honour of our 50th Anniversary, we want to hear from you on social media!
From May 3rd to December 1st, we’re inviting students and faculty from schools as well as members from community theatre groups to post pictures, short video clips or other materials (with permission of course!) from scene studies, rehearsals or productions on any social media platform.
For each post you create, your school or community group will receive an entry into a draw that will take place in December 2022. There will be three prize packages to win! The more you post the more chances you have to win! (See PRIZE PACKAGES below.)
