Manhattan Theatre Club (Lynne Meadow, Artistic Dir; Barry Grove, Executive Prod) has announced the creation of the Judith Champion Playwriting Fellowship, which will be awarded by MTC annually. Fully supported by MTC Patron Judith Champion, the Fellowship will provide artistic and financial resources to one playwright each season to write and develop a new commissioned play while in residence at MTC. Fellowship recipients will also participate in the life of the institution in a manner tailored to their strengths and interests. In addition to a commission, the recipient will be provided with a living allowance, access to office and rehearsal space, a ticket stipend, and a developmental workshop of at least one play during their fellowship year. The inaugural recipient, who will be in residence at MTC during the 2022-23 season, is Pulitzer Prize finalist Zora Howard. Press contact: Boneau/Bryan-Brown (212/575-3030)...
