NEW PLAY DEVELOPMENT With our fourth season coming to an end, The Bridge Theatre Company is now seeking new work from playwrights to develop through readings and workshops towards future production. We are interested in a wide variety of works from writers in the United States and Canada that explore the American and Canadian experiences. We hope to discover new plays that can examine everything from the bridges between two nations to the bridges between two people.
Specifically, we are looking for full-length plays that have not yet been produced in New York. We will consider shorter one-acts of merit, but our first interest are in plays with running times over 60 minutes.To determine if we are the right company for your work, please click on New Play Development in the navigation bar for details about our development process.
