Upcoming Events

Dramatists Guild National Silent Writing is open to DG members and non-members at no additional cost.

Writing is an art that thrives on inspiration, yet it can often feel like a solitary journey. We know that finding the motivation to write can sometimes be challenging. That’s why the Dramatists Guild offers ongoing online silent writing sessions, designed to transform your solitary endeavor into a communal experience.

The Business Affairs’ monthly series, Attorneys Backstage, is in its second year! 

Each month, join Director of Business Affairs Jessica Lit, Esq. and Business Affairs Consultant Leesa Fenderson, Esq. as they “pull back the curtain” on various aspects of the business of writing for the theatre.

Please note that this will be an IN-PERSON event. 

The Guild's Education Committee is planning a week’s worth of online events November 9 - 13, all centered around the topic of stage directions! 

To whet your appetites for that week of programming, we are kicking things off with an in-person event, hosted by the Guild’s Northeast Region Council member, and chair of the Education Committee, Stephen Kaplan.

Hosted by our Regional Council members and Regional Reps, the Community Conversations are an opportunity to connect with other members in your region, discuss topics relevant to our profession, and share resources like development opportunities, grant programs, and tips for effective marketing.

While these Community Conversations offer members the chance to create connections with others who live in the same geographic region, you’re welcome to attend any of the regional events that work for your schedule.

Please note that all sessions will be held on Zoom.
