3Girls Theatre’s (3GT) Reading Series supports emerging San Francisco playwrights who have been historically excluded from having their work produced: women over 40; Black, Indigenous, and women of color (BIWOC); and LBTQI+ women and artists assigned-female-at-birth. We provide everything a playwright needs to succeed, including paid dramaturgs, directors, casts, performance venue, and marketing support.

Each year, the Company invites emerging Bay Area women+ playwrights 40+ to apply for a slot in our Reading Series cohort by becoming a Brady Fellow. Our Brady Fellows Program offers artistic support, commitment and community to women+ theatre-makers "in their prime" who share 3GT's passion for bringing stories told by women+ to the stage. We provide each Brady Fellow with a professional team and resources, including a dramaturg, director and cast. We support their new play through drafts to a staged reading for a live audience, a springboard for further development. We will soon be introducing a new Fellowship to provide further opportunities emerging playwrights. 

Our 2023-2024 Season includes readings twice a month starting in 2024: In the Fall, we will be workshopping with our cohort to develop a show for public readings. Our free monthly staged readings take place at the landmark Phoenix Theatre located in the San Francisco's vibrant Union Square cultural district.
