If you’d like to get to know WTP better, join us for our Monday Night Development Workshops on the 1st and third Monday of every month. MNDW is currently virtual AND live. It is free to attend for all theatre artists.

To join us, please send an invite request to managing@workingtitleplaywrights.com. You don’t need to be a member to attend!

Our first live MNDW of 2022 will be on May 16th at Theatrical Outfit!
Masks and vaccinations required.

MNDW is our core play development program. WTP member playwrights may submit an excerpt of their work to be read by professional actors and critiqued in a moderated session. The feedback is provided by all who attend, both WTP members and affiliate artists.

This community has been energizing for me. It’s stimulating for me as an artist to be around like-minded people that are committed to the craft”.

WTP GOLDEN RULES for feedback and moderation

  1.  Raise your hand to speak.
  2. Snap if you agree.
  3. Be constructive. Be courteous.
  4. Avoid using the words “like” and “dislike.”
  5. Avoid suggestions on how to rewrite the play.
  6. Speak from I.
  7. Be mindful of the potential gap between intention and impact.

HOW TO SUBMIT
Once you’re an official member of WTP, you’ll receive an email once a month from the Managing Artistic Director requesting submissions for MNDW. The Call for Submissions is sent out mid-month. That email will include a submission form and detailed instructions. Up to three pieces can be read and discussed in one night. There is no selection process for MNDW. All members are welcome to submit.

WHO CAN ATTEND
MNDW is open and welcoming to all theatre artists. We value a diversity of voices in the room and would love to have you join us. This is a service of WTP, so you must be a member to submit your work to be read.
