LAUNCHPAD
An exciting way to empower a new generation of theatre artists with the space, resources, development, and institutional support to create visceral, compact, innovative, and portable performance pieces than can be replicated in ANY space in Atlanta, GA, the nation, or even across the globe.

NEW PLAY WORKSHOPS (2 Per Year)
We offer a week of rehearsal with a director, a dramaturg, and a full cast to dig into key questions about content, theme, structure, character development, story arc etc. to deepen the impact of the work and get it ready for a Main Stage production.

COMMISSIONS (1 Per Year)
Commissions support the creation of brand new plays, from initial concept all the way through to production. We look for exciting stories that start crucial conversations in our community, and highlight the diverse voice of Atlanta.

Made In Atlanta PRESENTS …
We offer Theatrical Outfit as a home for World Premiere productions of dynamic and exciting new plays that are connected to community engagement programs which deepen the impact of the work.

JULY 21: Cabin 6 Is Not Okay: Zeke is trying his hardest to keep Blue Mountain Sleepaway Camp running this summer as their assistant-director, but when the head camp director is missing, his camp counselors (the audience) can’t remember their morning duties, and one of the Troubled Kids keeps running into the woods to perform bloody rituals with animal bones? Maybe this quarter-life-crisis summer gig wasn’t worth it after all. We’ll spend 8 weeks of summer camp with Zeke, holding staff meetings, awarding camp badges to brave “camp counselors” (the audience), and working together to unravel the mystery of why the Cabin 6 boys are deeply, violently, horrifically not okay.

JULY 22: Syran-0: Syran-0 is a computer-based AI that has been managing every aspect of Alfie’s life for the past three years, seamlessly integrating into every moment of the day. When Alfie utilizes Syran-0’s help to secure a date with Roxy through an app, Syran-0 discovers they would prefer to have Alfie all to themselves and attempts to sabotage the potential relationship. But Roxy has a secret of her own that complicates Alfie’s feelings about continuing a relationship with her, and Syran-0 becomes more determined to ensure Alfie isn’t distracted by potentially messy relationships anymore. The play explores themes of loneliness, social anxiety, and the evolving role of technology in our lives.

Readings Are In The TO Rehearsal Room @ 7:30pm:

In an effort to offer access to a diverse group of local artists, and in alignment to the stated mission of our Made in Atlanta program, Theatrical Outfit accepts unsolicited inquiries, synopses and dialogue samples of up to ten pages from playwrights who reside in the state of Georgia. These materials will be evaluated for inclusion in the week-long development program for Made in Atlanta. If the play fits our criteria, the playwright will be notified for additional information about the play and the playwright’s interest in further development. Materials will not be returned or acknowledged except in cases of further interest on the part of the theatre.

Unsolicited complete manuscripts will be accepted when submitted by professional representatives only. Please note that lawyers and law firms do not qualify as “professional representation” in this venue.
