Manitoba Association of Playwrights

The MAP Resident Dramaturg Program is designed to support individual artists at various stages of their dramaturgical exploration, from those who are just beginning to those who already have a deeply established practice. This initiative is targeted to engage in particular with our region’s emerging storytellers from equity-seeking communities by supporting the artists who support them. Resident Dramaturgs meet regularly with MAP's Executive Director to exchange knowledge and share resources, to explore ways that MAP can support the full diversity of our region's storytellers, and to investigate the dramaturgical practice in general.
