Atta Girl Productions announces our call for entries for our 2013 season of staged readings and main stage shows.

Our 2013 Season: We expect to produce two staged readings and one full production. Writers for the staged readings will receive a small stipend of $50. Writers from the full productions will receive a small stipend of $500 to $1000. We may also produce other performances as funded.

We invite submissions from people of all backgrounds and ethnicities. Our productions share one common thread: they are progressive, contemporary, transformative, inspirational, challenging, and delightful. We seek original, new works.
