Southern Rep is pleased to announce that it will accept submissions for The Ruby Prize, effective immediately. The $10,000 annual award is named in honor of Ruby Bridges, who showed incredible perseverance in the face of formidable obstacles. The Ruby Prize seeks to support women playwrights of color whose work changes the voice of American theatre in the face of calcified producing practices.
In partnership with Hedgebrook, winners will receive a tenday writer's residency in addition to a cash prize.
This program is a part of Southern Rep's ongoing effort to develop new American plays, support a diverse community of artists, and incite meaningful dialogue within the community.
