Applications for Irons in the Fire 2025 are now open

Website

Deadline: Sunday, June 30, 2024 at 11:59pm EDT

ONLINE PROJECT APPLICATION

Irons in the Fire is Fault Line Theatre's year-round reading series of new plays in development.

Every play and every playwright require something a little different, so the format and timeline for each project is malleable. Our only requirement is a public sharing of the piece at some point in the process. Each reading is also supported by a fun social event that brings the Independent Theatre Community together in a meaningful way.

A Few Thoughts Before You Apply

Applications are due Sunday, June 30, 2024 at 11:59pm EST

You can apply with a project as either a writer or director

At this time, we can only accept one application per artist

Projects need not be finished. We accept proposals for pitches, outlines, drafts, and everything in between

There is no set template for each Irons in the Fire project. The only requirement is a public sharing of the piece at some point in the process.

The two lead artists on each Irons in the Fire project– usually a playwright and director– will receive a $1800 stipend.

Fault Line Theatre creates and produces socially relevant, character-driven plays for today’s audiences. We love all sorts of plays that fit into our mission.

You will need to be prepared to upload the following documents:
