Welcome to The Playwrights' Center's Writer's Opportunities listings, the nation's best collection of information for working dramatists. We do the research so our member playwrights can spend more time focused on writing. This extensive database of information contains information on contests, theaters, publication and submission opportunities. We add opportunities and search categories weekly to keep the information up-to-date and easy to search.
Here's a sneak peek of a few opportunities below. Become a member to view and search nearly 300 more. Join now to take advantage of this and many other valuable support services for playwrights. Current members can login by clicking the login button in the upper right corner of the page.
