Job Details

DESCRIPTION

Curtain Rising 2026 is a mini reading festival supporting the early-stage development of emerging playwrights whose work has never received a full production. The play being submitted must have had minimal development and must not have been developed through another festival or workshop in a producing capacity. We seek innovative stories that might otherwise go untold due to barriers to access. NewYorkRep creates an inclusive platform for diverse voices, fostering dialogue on themes of alienation and reconciliation while empowering artists, building community, and centering work that inspires social change by illuminating our shared humanity. We believe that by engaging social and ethical questions through art, we can promote empathy, compassion, and inclusion.

Submission link is open until March 31, 2026
