Abstract
The strategic thrust of La Troupe du Jour, with its principal mandate of creating new stage works, has developed from a reflection of the anecdotal or historical realities of its original Fransaskois communities to encompass the wider and even international cultural range of an evolving population of Saskatchewan Francophones. It has created an amalgam of dramaturgical supports to identify and nurture new and established writers for the French stage, with the eventual aim of diffusing their work through professional productions locally, on tour, and in festivals. Its growing reputation has been recognized with local and national awards and the publication of a number of its original creations. With more stable funding and the opening of its new production centre, LTDJ has achieved the status of an equal with theatre companies of the English majority, while its programming attracts an ever widening audience of both French and English speakers.
