From May 29 to June 2 2022, the Cliniques Dramaturgiques held their sixth edition at the heart of the FTA. A true breach in the Festival, this “unproductive” time-space is devoted to the accompaniment of local creation. Six dramaturgs meet Montreal artists and their creative processes in intimate one-on-one sessions. Two public activities – tales of the dramaturges and Thinking Together: the extended community of the Cliniques – have contributed to increasing recognition of the discreet work of these artisans of thought and to sharing tools and experiences.
In their first year of hosting the Cliniques, Yohayna Hernandez and Emmanuelle Jetté have committed themselves to promoting a plural, open and inventive dramaturgy, in particular by favoring the meeting of North-South axes. Throughout their stay, the guest dramaturges inhabited a space in the HQ intended for their reflections; an ephemeral place of occupation to work in and to cover with traces, a place of exchange to think collectively.
