Project Y Theatre Company: Project Y Playwrights Group

web site

Project Y Theatre Company (www.projectytheatre.org), which most recently produced the world premiere of A User’s Guide to Hell, Featuring Bernard Madoff by Lee Blessing, is currently accepting applications for the Project Y Playwrights Group.

Starting in January 2014, a selected group of emerging and professional playwrights will meet twice a month to share and discuss work and develop their plays with peer support.  The Playwrights Group will serve as an artistic community, a sounding board for ideas, and a way to build lasting relationships with playwrights and other Project Y artists.  Playwrights will also be considered for Project Y readings and
productions, and will collaborate on ten-minute play festivals and other projects.

To apply for the Playwrights Group, please send:

1. One full-length play (send us your best, most representative work – produced or unproduced).
2. A professional resume.

Playwrights must be based in or around NYC (or be willing to travel there twice a month for meetings), and must be willing to commit to meeting for a period of one year.

To apply, send your play and a resume to literary manager Lia Romeo at liaromeo@yahoo.com (or contact her with any questions).
Please use “Application for Project Y Playwrights Group” in the subject heading of your email.
 Application deadline: December 15.  Selected playwrights will be notified in January.
