LEARN MORE About Our PROGRAMS
Each year, Theater Masters hosts a national 10-minute playwriting competition among the MFA students at the top MFA Playwriting programs in the country. Participating schools have included: Brown University, Brooklyn College, Cal Arts, Carnegie-Mellon University, Columbia University, New York University, University of California-Los Angeles, University of California-San Diego, University of Iowa, the University of Texas at Austin, and the Yale School of Drama. 5-6 top plays are selected, by an esteemed guest adjudicator along with a reading panel made up of industry professionals, from submissions by these schools. The winning playwrights are flown, first to Aspen and then New York, for workshops and performances of their pieces. This is a unique and career-starting program for these young playwrights. The festival culminates in a public performance of these pieces, along with the winners of the Aspiring Playwrights Competition, first in Aspen, CO and then an Equity showcase in New York City.
