Description:
The Yale Drama Series is an annual international competition for emerging playwrights. The winner receives the David Charles Horn prize of $10,000, publication of their manuscript by Yale University Press and a professional staged reading.
The Yale Drama Series is taking a hiatus for the upcoming 2021 competition due to unanticipated changes in our judge’s schedule. We look forward to receiving submissions from emerging playwrights next year, from June 1, 2021 – August 15, 2021.
No updates as of October 2023. Using past info to predict new submission date.
