DRAMATISTS GUILD MUSICAL THEATER FELLOWS:
Please submit a cover letter telling us why you would like to participate in the Dramatists Guild Musical Theater Fellowship Program; a resume containing pertinent contact information for you; mp3 files of four (4) songs with lyric sheets; a brief description of each song as to its plot placement, and a brief synopsis of the musical. Musical submissions need not be elaborately produced; piano and voice is sufficient. Please note that we can only accept music in the mp3 format. Please e-mail each song separately and name them as follows: LastNameMusicalTitleSong# (for example: FlahertyRagtime#1.mp3) The other documents must be e-mailed as a PDF.
**PLEASE NOTE: if you are applying as a Musical Theater Fellow and you write both music and lyrics, you may apply alone as a “self-contained” writer. Members of collaborative teams must apply together. Unfortunately, we cannot accept people who write only lyrics or only music without a writing partner, as we cannot pair collaborators. The cover letter and materials submitted should make it clear whether you and your collaborator are applying as a team or whether you write both music and lyrics.
We never post opportunities that require a submission fee. LEARN MORE.
