All women who consider themselves emerging playwrights (as distinct from fledgling or mid-career playwrights) are encouraged to apply for the Prize. Applications must be received no later than 6pm EST on January 15, 2011 and must include the following:
- An initial submission of up to ten pages excerpted from a fully-developed, completed script. Please note: Finalists will be required to submit the complete script to the FEWW.
- A cover letter of no more than one page describing yourself and your work. Make sure to also include the following contact information: address, daytime telephone number, and email address.
- A resume
- At least one letter of support from someone who knows you and your work well
IMPORTANT SUBMISSIONS GUIDELINES
All applications must be submitted in PDF format and labeled "LastName_FirstName" (i.e. "Smith_Jane")
The PDF from the applicant should include (in order) 1) the cover letter, 2) resume/bio, and 3) the first 10 pages of your play.
Letters of recommendation should also be submitted as PDFs, though may arrive separately. These should be labeled "ApplicantLastName_ApplicantFirstName_ReferenceLastName" (i.e., "Smith_Jane_Jones").
Enquiries may be made to this address:

Eligibility does not require that a submitted work adhere to the traditional three-act structure. One-acts, two-acts (even four-, five-, six- acts), monologues, adaptations, and any other wild or deceptively tame format will be considered with equal seriousness. The only absolute requirement is that the submitted text be a completed full-length work for theater.
The Winner will be chosen by a committee selected by the board members of Leah Ryan's FEWW.
The Winner will receive a cash award of $1,000 as well as a staged reading of her play hosted by FEWW at a theater in New York City. In addition, a stipend of up to $700 for travel and accommodation may be provided by FEWW if necessary. All finalists will be recognized on the FEWW website, and in any other announcements pertaining to the 2011 Prize.
The 2011 Winner will be announced on May 1st, with the reading to follow on an evening to be determined in mid-June. |
