The Emerging Playwrights Lab
- Currently accepting submissions -
Over the course of three months, each playwright will have three cold readings performed by a community of actors. After each reading there will be structured discussion from a rotating board of theatre artists and their fellow lab members. Between each of their cold reads, the playwright will have a one on one meeting with the facilitator to set individual goals for their next reading. The lab will culminate in fifteen minutes of each play being presented at a festival of new works at a Manhattan venue with invited industry guests, friends, and fellow artists.

How we help
New Works Incubator
Amoeba Productions’ goal is to engage artists through several development, learning and performance opportunities each year. Besides social mingles and a playwrights lab, we just closed a collaboration between fifteen creators to build “The Pigeon Potluck”, an experimental exhibit of dance, words, paintings, and more. Then, on we produced a free abridged production of “As You Like It” at Riverbank State Park. Stay tuned for more culminating projects as a 501C(3) non-profit!
Early Career Artists
As a company of emerging artists, built by emerging artists, at Amoeba Productions we understand that resources of all kinds are limited. Amoeba is invested in actively engaging with the communities it makes art within. We are seeking to bring together emerging artists in NYC.
Affordable Education
Our mission focuses on providing accessible, community-based platforms in the New York Metropolitan area, fostering an environment that challenges traditional boundaries and inspires transformation. Amoeba Productions is rooted in ten core values—respect, honesty, trust, humility, sharing, diversity, empathy, courage, forgiveness, and love—Amoeba Productions strives to create a supportive and inclusive artistic community. Their vision emphasizes empowerment, innovation, and the celebration of diverse voices and experiences in the arts.
