Opportunity: 3GT Innovators Program Accepting Submissions!
Opportunity: Submit to 3GT Innovators Program
3Girls Theatre seeks submissions for the Innovators Series on a year-round rolling basis. We are looking for women playwrights and/or women-led theater companies with experimental projects in early stages of development. The 3GT Innovators Series supports theater makers as they develop their work, providing development and production resources. 3GT also offers platforms for sharing their work with different communities, including Innovators Happy Hours at Google Community Space, which combine in-development “scratch” performances with a party atmosphere and networking opportunities for trailblazing peers from across San Francisco. Commitments may be subject to change due to COVID-19 and shelter-in-place necessities.
To be considered for 3GT’s Innovators Series you must:
-
- Identify as a woman theater artist OR be a women-led theater company (women must feature prominently in leadership roles, though not necessarily exclusively)
- Live and work in the San Francisco Bay Area
- Create performances that challenge formal convention and push thematic boundaries
- Commit to one 30min “scratch” performance at Google Community Space*
- Commit to attending the Happy Hour scratch performances of other Innovators (no more than 4/year)
As part of your participation in 3GT’s Innovatrors Series, you will receive:
-
- $2,500 to be used for artist fees, rehearsal space, and/or production costs associated with the development process and public presentations
- Exposure to new audiences and potential collaborators
- The support of professional dramaturgs throughout the development process
- The support of professional producers for any public performances
- Use of 3GT’s office space in North Beach for table-reads and company meetings
- The possibility of co-producing a full production of your project with 3GT
Applications are accepted on a rolling basis throughout the year. 3GT Innovators Series has room for up to 4 artists/companies per year. All “Innovators” may reapply each year, until the project is no longer served by the resources 3GT’s Innovators program can offer.
*COVID19:
Because of the current public health crisis, 3GT has suspended all public performances for the remainder of 2020. 3GT hopes to return to public performance in 2021, though exactly when or how will depend on guidance from public health experts. In the meantime, 3GT is exploring virtual performance platforms like Zoom.
