AMP: Artists' Meeting Place and Resource Collective

from Franklin Furnace

Applications are Now Open for

The 2019-2021 Writer / Director LAB

Dear Friends,

We are thrilled to announce that beginning today, Soho Rep. is accepting applications for the Writer / Director LAB through Monday, July 8 at 5:00PM (EST).

The LAB is an engine for creating lasting artistic relationships and giving the artists the means and resources to make a tangible piece of theater. The LAB supports the development of four projects created by collaborative pairs over 18 months, culminating in work-in-progress presentations at Soho Rep. The artistic teams will emerge from the LAB confident in the work they have made and with a substantive piece of theater that can have a future life.

This signature Soho Rep. program will again be co-chaired by theater makers William Burke and Jackie Sibblies Drury. You can read a bit more about their own artistic practices HERE.

We are so inspired by the work of our 2017-2019 LAB cohort, whose collaborations exemplify the exciting language, bold theatricality, and challenges to form that we are seeking from applicants to the LAB program. Artists can come from a variety of artistic specializations. Historically, these teams have involved one “writer” and one “director,” but we do not require a background in either discipline, and welcome fluidity in artistic roles.

Sound like you? You can click HERE https://sohorep.org/lab to read the full requirements, an application link, and submit your project by the Monday, July 8 at 5:00PM (EST) deadline to be considered. We can't wait to read your submissions!

Love,

Soho Rep.
