dg resource directory
The act of submitting creative work for a dramatist is as necessary as finishing it. But the process of finding the right submission opportunity can feel overwhelming. This is why, for more than 20 years, the Dramatists Guild has compiled a submissions and opportunities database, and published a full directory of theatres, agents, festivals, contests, workshops, retreats, and other submission opportunities to help make the life of the dramatist an easier one.

This functionality is part of suite of resources designed to help playwrights, composers, lyricists and librettists.  

Only active members or subscribers of the Guild may use the Resource Directory.

  • Co-production is time-tested strategy to leverage the resources of several opera companies around the presentation of a single opera.

The Co-Production Loan Fund offers more companies the financial flexibility to take advantage of the benefits of co-producing. The Co-Production Loan Fund is made possible by the...
