Playwrights/Writers Residency

Application Summer 2021

​

Beginning in March 2021, Frog Pump Productions will actively support playwrights/writers by providing housing within our residential portfolio. By easing the financial burden of city-living, we strive to give qualifying writers the time and space to work. The process is open to any playwright who is a member of the Dramatist Guild, and any published writer. Currently there is no fee to apply to or attend the Residency program. Playwrights/writers are hosted for two to seven days from March to October.
