Freedom Train Productions is now accepting applications for their residency for black playwrights. Founded by the awarding of a Social Justice Fellowship from NYU Wagner and Open Society Institute to Artistic Director Andre Lancaster, Freedom Train seeks playwrights whose work responds to the political realities of our times. To this end, the playwright will be commissioned to write a new play that centers a black LGBT character in a story that tackles provocative themes around – for example – war, police brutality and state violence, women's rights, religious tolerance, capitalism, disease, the prison industrial complex, democracy, freedom, hip hop and culture, family, and love etc. Please visit Freedom Train Productions for more information.
DEADLINE: January 18th
