Thanks for your interest in submitting to the Ebell Playwright Prize. Only 17% of the plays produced in America are written by women. We’d like to change that. And it can start with you.

The first-prize winner is awarded $5,000 and a staged reading, followed by supper at the historic Ebell of Los Angeles, with complimentary admission for four. Second-prize winner receives a $1,000 award. Third prize is $500.

We look forward to hearing from you.
