We are back with another highly requested “playlist” (our special way of grouping grants) tailored for theater and playwrights. We hope this makes finding funding even easier.
There are currently (4) grants listed.
Note: These grants have already been shared with our paid subscribers in our monthly newsletter (September 2026) and other playlists.
Think of a playlist just as another way to filter funding opportunities, so bookmark this page for later. We will update this resource regularly with new awards we find.
Our other playlists include:
