Founded in 2020, The Strides Collective produces and develops theatrical work by emerging playwrights that embraces the queer experience through authentic, modern, and innovative storytelling. Our work prioritizes the goal of normalizing the conversation about queer identity, creating a safe haven in which emerging artists can tell their stories without fear of judgment.
Each season, we fully produce a world premiere queer play at a venue in Philadelphia, PA. Previous venues have included Arden Theatre Company’s Studio Theatre and The Christ Church Neighborhood House. In addition to our productions, we produce a new play development program each year. Our playwrights and directors have gone on to work with such places as the National Theater Institute at The Eugene O’Neill Theater Center, Powerhouse Theater at Vassar College, The Dramatist Guild Foundation, and Primary Stages.

*We will also consider submissions from playwrights who do not live in the Greater Philadelphia Area but are willing and able to travel to Philadelphia to attend some in-person rehearsals and the production itself. All travel and accommodation costs would be the sole responsibility of the playwright.
-Playwright is emerging
-Play has NOT been published/produced previously (workshops & readings are OK)

WEBSITE: https://arts.princeton.edu/fellowships/princeton-arts-fellowship/
Princeton Arts Fellowships, funded in part by The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, David E. Kelley Society of Fellows in the Arts, and the Maurice R. Greenberg Scholarship Fund, will be awarded to artists whose achievements have been recognized as demonstrating extraordinary promise in any area of artistic practice and teaching. Applicants should be early career visual artists, filmmakers, poets, novelists, playwrights, designers, directors and performance artists—this list is not meant to be exhaustive—who would find it beneficial to spend two years teaching and working in an artistically vibrant university community.
Princeton Arts Fellows spend two consecutive academic years (September 1-July 1) at Princeton University and formal teaching is expected. The normal work assignment will be to teach one course each semester subject to approval by the Dean of the Faculty, but fellows may be asked to take on an artistic assignment in lieu of a class, such as directing a play or creating a dance with students. Although the teaching load is light, our expectation is that Fellows will be full and active members of our community, committed to frequent and engaged interactions with students during the academic year.
A $92,000 a year stipend is provided. Fellowships are not intended to fund work leading to an advanced degree. One need not be a U.S. citizen to apply. Holders of Ph.D. degrees from Princeton are not eligible to apply.
DEADLINE: September 10, 2024
WEBSITE: https://arts.princeton.edu/fellowships/hodder-fellowship/
The Hodder Fellowship will be given to artists and writers of exceptional promise to pursue independent projects at Princeton University during the academic year. Potential Hodder Fellows are composers, choreographers, performance artists, visual artists, writers, translators, or other kinds of artists or humanists who have “much more than ordinary intellectual and literary gifts”; they are selected more “for promise than for performance.” Given the strength of the applicant pool, most successful Fellows have published a first book or have similar achievements in their own fields; the Hodder is designed to provide Fellows with the “studious leisure” to undertake significant new work.
Hodder Fellows spend an academic year with Princeton, but no formal teaching is involved. A $92,000 stipend is provided for this 10-month appointment as a Visiting Fellow. Fellowships are not intended to fund work leading to an advanced degree. One need not be a U.S. citizen to apply. Previous recipients of the Princeton Arts Fellowship are not eligible to apply.

DEADLINE: September 15, 2024
WEBSITE: https://www.seattlepublictheater.org/distillery
The festival this season will take place at Seattle Public Theater June 12-15th, 2025.
Before you submit, please review the following information, then fill out the form to submit your play. Plays MUST be submitted through the form, not via email. If you have any questions, please contact literary@seattlepublictheater.org for assistance. The Distillery New Works Festival is a celebration of emerging theater and an opportunity for playwrights to gain valuable feedback on new work. Each play in the festival receives a live reading by a cast of professional actors, allowing it to live and breathe off the page. The readings conclude with a discussion of the play with the playwright, giving writers the chance to receive feedback from Seattle audiences and providing a platform for audiences to help shape new works in process.
Before submitting, please make sure your play meets the following criteria:
Full-length plays. We are currently only accepting submissions for full-length scripts of any genre. Shorts and one-acts will not be considered.
One play per playwright. We will only consider one script per playwright for this year's Distillery Festival.
New works, development mindset. The Distillery Festival is intended to promote new works and help playwrights who want to actively update and improve their scripts. Selected playwrights are expected to approach the festival with a development mindset, and to attend/participate in the festival to the best of their ability. If you are completely finished with your script, the Distillery process is not for you.
Festival attendance. Festival attendance is expected for those in the Seattle area. If you are from out of the area, every effort will be made to provide you with a travel stipend and accommodations so you may join in person as well. If in-person attendance is not possible, Zoom attendance is expected for all playwrights.
Feminism - your play passes the Macha Test. This year Distillery is being produced by Seattle Public Theater in association with Macha Theatre Works, and we are excited to use the festival to help lift up feminist works. Please review the Macha Test and make sure your play passes before submitting. We will not consider plays that do not pass the Macha Test.
We will review all scripts submitted to us during the open submission period, then select a group to move on to the next round of review. This first review can take some time, so we thank you in advance for your patience. As we narrow down our play selection, we will announce which plays have made it to the next round both via email and publicly on our social media. Here is the timeline we followed last year. While we may diverge this year, it will hopefully give you a framework for setting expectations about this process for 2024-2025:
December: Release of the LONG LIST (last year, 31 plays)
End of December: Release of the SHORT LIST (last year, 22 plays)
January: Playwright Interviews: Short-listed playwrights are expected to participate in a virtual interview with members of the Seattle Public Distillery team. After interviews, release of the FINALISTS LIST (last year, 11 plays)
February: Final review/director matching process. Release of the OFFICIAL SELECTIONS.
In the end, we expect to select 5 or 6 plays from the selection process to participate in Distillery, along with one play from a Seattle Public Theater resident playwright. Last year we received ~350 Distillery submissions and included 7 plays in the final festival. We will be looking for an eclectic group of feminist plays to round out this exciting new works festival. We will prioritize playwrights local to the Pacific Northwest and those from traditionally underrepresented backgrounds in theater.
After our script selection process, we enjoy connecting with talented directors and actors to help bring these new scripts to life. If you're interested in getting involved, feel free to contact us at literary@seattlepublictheater.org to learn what openings are available this year.

10. THE WOMEN’S WORK LAB
DEADLINE: September 30th, 2024
WEBSITE: https://www.newperspectivestheatre.org/ww-project-index
The WOMEN’S WORK LAB for short plays provides a supportive and nurturing environment to emerging and mid-career women playwrights while maintaining a rigorous feedback process that leads to production within six months.
Six playwright members are selected each year, along with a similar number of directors. The LAB meets monthly (Sundays) from February through June, allowing for time in between sessions for writers to continue to develop and revise their work in response to specific feedback from the dramaturgical team. Members are expected to bring work to each session beginning with the development of an original short play BASED UPON AN ASSIGNED THEME.
Monthly feedback from the dramaturgs focuses on the nuts and bolts of creating a 15-30 minute script ready for production. In a process unique to NPTC, feedback is given in a unified manner so playwrights do not have conflicting advice about what to work on, and so that the script moves forward according to NPTC's instructions as the producing entity. This approach creates a collaborative group from which members can draw inspiration and energy while modeling professional standards. Scripts are then produced in our ANNUAL WOMEN'S WORK SHORT PLAY FESTIVAL.
Note: those still enrolled in a degree-seeking program are ineligible for applying.
Playwrights should apply by MIDNIGHT, SEPTEMBER 30, 2024 by sending the following as email attachments, with the email Subject Line “Women’s Work Application”
to SP-APPS@newperspectivestheatre.org:
**Please include: **
a full resume, including specific information on your training as a writer (i.e. degree program, workshops, etc.) and website URL if applicable

a personal statement explaining your understanding of the purpose of the LAB and why you wish to be a member, including goals for your own growth and development if selected. Please include in this statement how you choose to be identified re: ethnicity and gender (she/they).
(Please note that ALL 3 items are required to be considered.)

For nearly four decades, The New Harmony Project has gathered world-class writers and artists
along the banks of the Wabash River for an intensive, creative residency and retreat in the spring of each year. Throughout that time, Pulitzer Prize, Tony, Emmy, and Academy Award-winning artists have worked alongside early and mid-career writers, students, and the local community to create a one-of-a-kind experience in Utopia. With a unique focus on people over product, The New Harmony Project clears space and provides a supportive environment for each writer and artist to build their own experience.
OUR MISSION
The New Harmony Project is a national arts organization whose mission is to nurture writers in the development of scripts and new works that interrogate the complexity of hope. Through artist-centered programming, we care for writers so they can change the world.
THE 2025 WRITERS’ RESIDENCY
This year, through our open selection process, we're seeking storytellers who are interested in an artist-centered residency that will provide a creative and nurturing environment, supportive artistic community, and dramaturgical resources in a bucolic setting. These residencies will not include a full developmental workshop with actors and a creative team, but there will be opportunities to hear your work out loud in informal settings.
At the 2025 residency, we will also be supporting 3 Productions in Residence selected in collaboration with partner organizations outside of the open selection process. These projects will be receiving a full developmental workshop with actors and a creative team, but will be shorter in duration. Writers cannot apply for the Productions in Residence program.
WHEN IS THE 2025 RESIDENCY?
May 21 - June 1, 2025 in New Harmony, IN
WHAT IS THE PROJECT LOOKING FOR IN A COMPANY MEMBER?
We are looking for artists who will be active participants in creating a welcoming, supportive and engaged artistic community over the course of the conference.
We support stories and storytellers interrogating the complexity of hope. If you’ve read our mission statement and you’re still not sure you're a good fit for the conference, you can gain a fuller sense of our aesthetic and philosophical interests by perusing our roster of writers and scripts that have recently found an artistic home at NHP.
We are actively working to dismantle racism within our organization, and are committed to supporting artists who honor a multiplicity of perspectives.
WHAT DOES THE PROJECT PROVIDE?
There is no out of pocket expense to apply or attend, and we pay a modest honorarium to each participant.
Additionally, we provide:
A creative community and an unparalleled level of artistic support, including dramaturgical meetings, informal salons to hear work, collaborators willing to read pages, student interns to provide support, etc.

Months prior to residencies, selected playwrights participate in dramaturgical conversations with an assigned director and dramaturg. Workshops with these creative teams and a cast of professional actors commence once the playwright arrives on-site. It is important to note that these conversations and workshops are playwright driven, allowing the writer to shape their own developmental path. Selected playwrights should be prepared to dedicate adequate time to this process prior to arriving on-site. For More Information or Questions: nvliteraryassociate@gmail.com
