Reblogged from Bitter Gertrude:
My theatre company is in heavy season planning mode, so I've recently read dozens of new plays. I'm always reading new plays, but this time of year, I'm reading a lot of plays, all day long. We're making an effort to find more plays by women playwrights. We get between 300-400 unsolicited submissions each year, as well as submissions from agents and theatre professionals (playwrights, other ADs or LMs).
Truth. Think about it, then avoid.
