Premiering new works has been a core component of Manhattan Theatre Club’s mission since its founding. Our Artistic Development staff oversees the development of new works for the stage, nurturing plays that later go on to production at MTC and around the country through a robust array of commissioning programs, developmental workshops, artistic initiatives, and more. Dedicated to fostering ongoing, supportive, and meaningful relationships with playwrights and other artists throughout their careers, these initiatives offer theatermakers the time, space, and resources they need to create thrilling new works for the stage. Read more about our initiatives to support these artists and their work below.
