The Dramatist is the official journal of the Dramatists Guild of America, the professional organization of playwrights, composers, lyricists, and librettists and the only national publication devoted to the business and craft of writing for theatre. The Dramatist aims to keep writers and theatres up to date on the latest news and conversations regarding writing for the American and international stage. Authored by playwrights, librettists, composers, and lyricists, and published six times a year, each issue details the finer aspects of art and commerce; its articles, interviews, and roundtables make for essential reading.
