The Wisconsin Wrights New Play Development Project offers an incredible opportunity to Wisconsin playwrights as it focuses on the development of new works through residencies, intensive workshops and public readings.

Wisconsin Wrights Playwriting Intensive

In even years, Wisconsin Wrights will offer a four day Playwriting Intensive focused on the craft of writing with daily feedback, reading sessions with actors, and individual tutorials. Limited to 15 participants, the Playwriting Intensive is wonderful opportunity to expand your craft while working on a new play. The 2012 Playwriting Intensive is scheduled for May 31-June 3, 2012.

Wisconsin Wrights Residency

Play submission for consideration for a Residency will be accepted on a biannual basis with our next round opening in November 2012 for consideration for workshops in May 2013. Each of the three Award Recipients will be awarded a one week residency in Madison, Wisconsin. The three plays will be featured as part of the University Theatre/UW-Madison Department of Theatre and Drama summer season with each receiving a one week workshop (with a cast, dramaturg, and director) which culminates in public readings. The Residency is scheduled for June 1-June 8, 2013. Learn more.
