SUBMISSION FORM
The 46 Minutes Writers Group is a seasonal cohort of playwrights helping develop each other’s new work. Led by Gabby Kimbrough and Cha Mangan, our playwrights can receive feedback on their new work, get to hear their new work said out loud, and be held accountable for getting new pages and edits out. The Fall 2026 cohort program will be 10 weeks long, with each writer presenting their work every other week. We'll be meeting in-person every Saturday at the Brooklyn Public Library Central Branch from 11am - 2pm, September 19th to November 21st.
Writers will also publicly share a short snippet of their work in our fall ROUGH CUTS public showcase, which will take place on December 7th, 2026.

About Us: THE 46 MINUTES COLLECTIVE is a non-hierarchical performance collective founded by artists committed to nurturing and producing boldly original, interdisciplinary time-based work. We aim to bolster emerging artists in their pursuit to push the limits of form, challenge the purity of medium, and foster collaborative processes. Our works exist in the in-between and the surreal; they tap on the fourth wall in a quest to make art that is accessible and creatively adventurous.
