The Prix Gratien-Gélinas, originally known as Prime à la création du Fonds Gratien-Gélinas, is a Canadian theatre prize awarded for an original script with the aim of helping bring it to the stage. It was first awarded in 1994. It is presented by the Centre des auteurs dramatiques du Québec [fr] with the financial support of Quebecor, Cirque du Soleil and Ici Radio-Canada.[1] Named in honour of Gratien Gélinas, it is considered the most important Canadian award recognizing emerging talent in francophone playwriting.[2]
