Interested in submitting to the New Play Initiative? 

Roundabout Theatre Company is dedicated to providing a nurturing home for theatre artists at all stages of their careers, and we're proud to introduce new playwrights to the Roundabout family each year.

At this time, Roundabout accepts full script submissions only from established literary agents. If you are a represented writer, please have your literary agent submit on your behalf. Please note that lawyers and law firms do not qualify as professional representation in our venue.

In an effort to attend to the large number of solicited scripts we receive each season, we will no longer be accepting samples. Playwrights are encouraged to consult resources such as Play Submissions Helper and individual organizations’ websites for complete and up-to-date information on submission policies and opportunities at American theatres.
