For Post-Secondary Educators

Course Bundles

If you teach a course that uses three or more of our books, you can create a discounted book bundle for your students! Three or four books will garner 20% off, five or more will be 30% off.

Bundles are only eligible for Canadian schools. These discounted rates are specifically for students who will buy the bundle on our website and either pick the books up in your office/department or have them shipped to their home. Please note that if the students are to have their bundles shipped directly, there will be about a week between ordering and shipping. If students require books immediately, we strongly recommend you choose the pick up option. In order to make sure we have enough stock of each book and the information in place with our distributor, we require your bundle request to come in about a month before your course begins. 

Please fill out this form to start the process, or contact us at info@playwrightscanada.com with any questions.

If you would prefer to create a bundle of ebooks, please contact Annie Gibson at annie@playwrightscanada.com to discuss possibilities.

Pop-Up Ambassador program

Know a student who has heaps of enthusiasm, charisma, and an interest in published plays? If you have the space to hold a pop-up shop at your school, we’re interested working with you! Playwrights Canada Press is inviting motivated students who’d like to do some extra reading and earn a bit of money to become ambassadors for our books. We’ll send students a box of books and ask them to familiarize themselves with our new plays. We’ll then work with their college or university to set up a pop-up shop which they’ll be responsible for running, selling books to fellow students or the local community depending on the event. Students will be paid for their time running the pop-up shop.

For more information or to suggest a student you think we should be in touch with please contact us at info@playwrightscanada.com.

The PLEDGE Project

The PLEDGE Project (standing for "Production Listing to Enhance Diversity and Gender Equity") consists of a searchable database of more than four hundred large-cast plays (with six or more characters) by Canadian women. The main objective of the project is to improve the number of women playwrights produced on the mainstages of post-secondary institutions and theatre training programs in Canada. To search plays, make a pledge, or submit a play, visit their website.
