**Wajdi Mouawad**, [OC](/wiki/Order_of_Canada "Order of Canada"), (born 1968) is a [Lebanese-Canadian](/wiki/Lebanese-Canadian "Lebanese-Canadian") writer, actor, and director. He is known in Canadian and French theatre for politically engaged works such as the acclaimed[\[1\]](#cite_note-1) play [_Incendies_](/wiki/Incendies_(play) "Incendies (play)") (2003). His works often revolve around family trauma, war, and the betrayal of youth.\[ _[citation needed](/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed "Wikipedia:Citation needed")_\] Since April 2016, Mouawad has been the director of the [Théâtre national de la Colline](/wiki/Th%C3%A9%C3%A2tre_national_de_la_Colline "Théâtre national de la Colline") in Paris.[\[2\]](#cite_note-La_Colline-2)

## Early life and education

\[ [edit](/w/index.php?title=Wajdi_Mouawad&action=edit&section=1 "Edit section: Early life and education")\]

Born in [Lebanon](/wiki/Lebanon "Lebanon"), Mouawad's family left the country when he was eight due to the outbreak of the [Lebanese Civil War](/wiki/Lebanese_Civil_War "Lebanese Civil War").\[ _[citation needed](/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed "Wikipedia:Citation needed")_\]
He moved to [Montreal](/wiki/Montreal "Montreal") in 1983 after living in France for five years.\[ _[citation needed](/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed "Wikipedia:Citation needed")_\]
He obtained his diploma in _interprétation_ (_acting_) from the [National Theatre School of Canada](/wiki/National_Theatre_School_of_Canada "National Theatre School of Canada") in 1991.[\[3\]](#cite_note-3)

## Career

\[ [edit](/w/index.php?title=Wajdi_Mouawad&action=edit&section=2 "Edit section: Career")\]

In 1998, his creation _Willy Protagoras enfermé dans les toilettes_ ( _Willy Protagoras locked up in the toilets_) was voted best [Montreal](/wiki/Montreal "Montreal")-based production by l'Association québécoise des critiques de théâtre.\[ _[citation needed](/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed "Wikipedia:Citation needed")_\]

From 2000 to 2004, he led the [Théâtre de Quat'sous](/wiki/Th%C3%A9%C3%A2tre_de_Quat%27sous "Théâtre de Quat'sous") in Montreal.[\[4\]](#cite_note-4)

In 2004 he directed and produced his first film, _Littoral_, based on the play of the same name.[\[5\]](#cite_note-5)

In September 2007, he became the artistic director of the [National Arts Centre](/wiki/National_Arts_Centre "National Arts Centre")'s French Theatre in [Ottawa](/wiki/Ottawa "Ottawa"), Ontario, Canada.[\[6\]](#cite_note-6)[\[7\]](#cite_note-7)

In early 2011, Mouawad cast French rock musician [Bertrand Cantat](/wiki/Bertrand_Cantat "Bertrand Cantat") in Chœurs, his production of a trilogy of Greek plays by [Sophocles](/wiki/Sophocles "Sophocles"). This sparked widespread public criticism in Canada, as Cantat had recently been released after serving four years for the murder of his girlfriend, French actress [Marie Trintignant](/wiki/Marie_Trintignant "Marie Trintignant"). Canadian politicians suggested barring Cantat's entry into the country, as he failed to meet legal requirements for the entry of ex convicts. In April 2011 the artistic director of [Théâtre du Nouveau Monde](/wiki/Th%C3%A9%C3%A2tre_du_Nouveau_Monde "Théâtre du Nouveau Monde"), [Lorraine Pintal](/wiki/Lorraine_Pintal "Lorraine Pintal"), announced that Cantat would not be performing in Chœurs in Canada, though he did tour with the production in France, Belgium and Switzerland.[\[8\]](#cite_note-8) Mouawad responded to the controversy by publishing an open letter to his three-year-old daughter Aimee in the newspaper _[Le Devoir](/wiki/Le_Devoir "Le Devoir")_, arguing for Cantat's right to complete reintegration into society.[\[9\]](#cite_note-9)

Since April 2016, Mouawad has been the director of the [Théâtre national de la Colline](/wiki/Th%C3%A9%C3%A2tre_national_de_la_Colline "Théâtre national de la Colline") in Paris.[\[2\]](#cite_note-La_Colline-2)

## Work

\[ [edit](/w/index.php?title=Wajdi_Mouawad&action=edit&section=3 "Edit section: Work")\]

His play _Incendies_ ( [Scorched](/wiki/Scorched_(play) "Scorched (play)")) has been produced all over the world, including the United States, Brazil, Austria, Germany, Mexico, Spain and Australia, and the 2007 production at the [Tarragon Theatre](/wiki/Tarragon_Theatre "Tarragon Theatre") in [Toronto](/wiki/Toronto "Toronto") won several awards. The Vienna Burgtheater assigned Stefan Bachmann with the stage production. It subsequently received much praise from critics, winning the ["Nestroy Award"](/wiki/Nestroy_Theatre_Prize "Nestroy Theatre Prize") in 2007. In 2011 _[Incendies](/wiki/Incendies "Incendies")_, the film version of the play directed by [Denis Villeneuve](/wiki/Denis_Villeneuve "Denis Villeneuve") was Canada's official selection for the Academy Awards.
