Deadline: September 2, 2025
American Woman (AW) is a solo show development and public engagement program for Female-identifying writers living in the United States.AW is conducted online and uses an instructor-led curated classroom format to advance each matriculant’s vision of their solo show.
Since public engagement is an equally important component of both the AW experience and the DQT mission, up to three excerpts of pieces developed in AW are chosen by the artistic and executive directors for presentation in an online showcase.
To be eligible for AW, you must be Female-identifying, have an early draft of a solo piece, and submit the required materials by the deadline. Additionally, participants must be able to attend all 8 sessions in their entirety.
Up to 12 matriculants will be selected based on early drafts of their solo pieces, interviews, and other submission materials (i.e., artistic statements, resumes, etc.).
American Woman will be conducted via Zoom for 8-consecutive weeks 12:00-2:30pm EST, Sundays, October 12 - November 30.
DQT is proud to announce this season's PT instructor will once again be Raquel Almazan.
Like all our programs, American Woman is free of charge.
