× The Rose Directing Fund will support an outstanding professional director in the creation of new work at Tarragon. The annual recipient will be a director who shows a commitment to telling Canadian stories with innovation and rigor, as Richard Rose has done in leading Tarragon for the last 20 years. This fund will develop opportunities for collaboration with directors from across the country, and will introduce new vision and perspective to Tarragon artists and audiences. A special reception will be held annually to celebrate their contribution to Tarragon’s artistic community.

× Supports Canadian artists with valuable resources such as funded time to develop their work, dramaturgical support, community engagement, artistic guidance, exposure to industry personnel, workshops, theatre assets, and studio space.

× Created in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Tarragon Relief Fund directs donations to the entire operations of the theatre, supporting all of our acclaimed performers, designers, craftspeople, adminitrators and directors by way of theatrical productions and online content.

× Provides funding for all technical and physical elements of performance, including but not limited to, lighting, audio, props, set design, special effects, online digital/streaming components, and further elements to establish the worlds in which our stories take place.

× Funds are directed to youth programming such as Possibilities from the Future, Young Playwrights Unit (YPU), The Scarborough Project, education workshops and student matinee subsidized tickets.
