The Tom Hendry Awards
An evening dedicated to celebrating the best in Canadian playwriting
Named for a founding member of Playwrights Guild of Canada, the late Tom Hendry, these national awards annually celebrate the most notable new works for the stage. Started by Playwrights Guild of Canada in 2002, the Tom Hendry Awards have grown to be a nationally recognized program honouring a range of talented storytelling for the stage from across the country. Finalists are selected by peer assessment panels and each Fall PGC shines a spotlight on finalists and recipients in a variety of writing categories: Drama, Comedy, Musical, Theatre for Young Audiences, plays by emerging writers and premiered plays. The awards event also highlights individual artists who contribute notably to the field of playwriting and the Canadian theatre industry.
