Rising Circle Theater Collective is now accepting applications for INKtank Cycle 9!

INKtank is Rising Circle Theater Collective's play development intensive for playwrights of color. INKtank has a two-fold mission: providing emerging playwrights of color an artistic home, and creating the structure and support to refine, rewrite and reimagine a new play. After 12 weeks, the final drafts of the INKtank plays are presented at PlayRISE, a culminating play festival of new works.  

The INKtank Lab is currently seeking 3-4 writers of color who are invested in the revision process of their own work and of their peers and the rigorous pursuit of their artistic goals.  The lab is facilitated by INKtank alums, Raquel Almazan (La Esperanza, or The Hopefulness) and Monet Hurst-Mendoza (Lilia, Veil'd) 

Our INKtank alumni have been produced or developed by, and have received awards from Clubbed Thumb, Women's Project Theater, The Public Theater, New Dramatists, The Playwright's Realm, New York Theater Workshop, Ma-Yi Theatre Company, The Dramatists Guild, and The Sundance Institute, Princess Grace Award, and the National Latino Playwriting Award. They have also been featured writers on Jane The Virgin and Parenthood.

All submissions must be made via Submittable by January 12, 2018.
