Job Openings

Play Submissions

Atlantic Theater Company accepts only solicited material, agent submissions, and work/proposals from its ensemble. Our season is comprised of four mainstage productions of new plays and revivals, and two second stage productions with an emphasis on new work. The season is complemented by a development series of readings and workshops, and we have an active commissioning program. In an effort to refocus our submissions policy, and attend to the large number of solicited scripts we received each season, we will no longer be accepting samples or inquiries. Playwrights are urged to consult The Dramatists Sourcebook and individual organizations’ websites for complete information on submission policies at American theaters.

Fellowship Training Opportunities

Volunteer Ushers

We are now accepting volunteer usher sign-ups for our 2022|2023 Season!

Productions playing at Atlantic’s Linda Gross Theater (336 West 20th Street) require two (2) ushers at each performance, while productions playing at Atlantic’s Stage 2 Theater (330 West 16th Street) require one (1) usher at each performance.

Atlantic Usher Responsibilities

Ushers will be given an internal performance score based on how well they complete the following responsibilities. These assessments may impact future ushering assignments.

  • You’re responsible for your own schedules. We expect each usher to show up for the shifts they have selected. If your availability changes, you MUST notify the Box Office ASAP!
  • Submit required documents to the Box Office prior to scheduled shift. We require that all volunteer ushers complete and submit Anti-Harassment Training Certification and complete Anti-racism Bystander Training, in addition to wearing masks while indoors at all times at our theater.
  • Arrive at the theater 1 hour prior to curtain dressed in all black. You will report to the box office upon arrival.
  • Follow the instructions given by the House Manager and other Front of House staff.
  • Stuff playbills, as needed, before the house opens to audience members.
  • Remain at house doors to scan tickets or rip stubs, distribute playbills, and relay important show info to each and every audience member.
  • Return ticket scanner or ticket stubs to the House Manager before taking your seat. Seat assignments are at the discretion of management.
  • Direct audience members to the box office, elevators, bathrooms, and concessions as needed.
  • Clean up after the performance: walk through the house and pick up all trash, lost items, or discarded playbills. Please do not leave until the House Manager dismisses you.
  • If your performance includes an intermission, go back to your post unless otherwise instructed. Please let the House Manager know immediately if you need to use the restroom during intermission so they may cover your door if needed.
  • If your performance includes a talkback after the show, please stay until the end to fulfill clean-up duties.
  • Be a good audience member too! Silence your cell phones, no food/drink, and no photography/videography.
