Each year, 3Girls Theatre invites emerging Bay Area women playwrights 40+ to apply to join the Company as Brady Fellows. Each Brady Fellow works with a dramaturg, director and cast to develop and stage a play through our Salon Series. The Brady Fellow Program offers artistic support, commitment and community to women theatre-makers in their prime who share our passion for bringing stories told by women to the stage.
WHY
Emerging playwrights over 40 all too often find their development opportunities frustrated because “emerging” translates to “twenty-something” in the eyes of theatre producers. 3GT’s core development program, the Salon Series, was created specifically to champion women dramatists who took a nontraditional path to professional theatre-making.
WHEN
If you want to know the most up-to-date information about the Salon Series and Brady Fellows program, sign up to receive once-a-month updates from 3GT. In addition to getting great content like interviews with artists and alerts about upcoming theatrical events in the community, you’ll be the first to know about Salon Series readings, virtual happenings, workshops and classes, and submission opportunities!
“Readings are the best way to figure out what’s wrong with a play. Hearing the words out loud in front of an engaged Salon Series audience brings them to life and shows what’s missing. . . There’s just no substitute to get your script to the next level.”
