Jaemi Theatre Company, an Asian-led nonprofit theatre company in the Washington, DMV area (DC, Maryland, Virginia)
Open to Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) playwrights across the U.S. Playwrights with ties to the DC area are preferred, but everyone is welcome to apply.
Staged readings at partner theatres across the DC area in May 2027, as part of our inaugural AAPI Theater Festival. The festival will feature four new plays by AAPI playwrights and one Korean play in English translation.
Theme: "Invisible." We are looking for something provoking: stories never told, never seen, never heard, even never tasted.
Plays up to two hours in running time. One-acts and full-length plays are both welcome.
Playwrights may submit more than one play. If more than one is shortlisted, the playwright will choose one.
