Guy Rex Rodgers

Guy Rex Rodgers arrived in Quebec in 1980, the year of the first referendum on independence. As a student at the ‘bilingual’ National Theatre School he discovered two worlds that coexisted in stubborn silence and has been trying to make sense of his adopted homeland ever since. He has worked extensively in multimedia, writing shows in Canada, the USA, Europe and the Middle East, as well as working with the Montreal International Jazz Festival for many years on music documentaries. While making a new home in Quebec Guy Rex Rodgers founded or co-founded several cultural institutions: The English Language Arts Network (ELAN), the Quebec Writers’ Federation and the Quebec Drama Federation. He was also a member of the founding board of le Conseil des arts et des lettres du Québec (CALQ) and in 2015 he was appointed to the newly created Ordre des arts et des lettres du Québec.
