Open Stage

EAG Open Stage 2020

Since 1923, EAG has provided emergency financial aid and career support to New York City performers. With Open Stage, we are giving emerging theatre companies a chance to create and present work without the challenges that come with finding and maintaining affordable space.

Before applying for this grant, please read the Open Stage FAQ's and testimonials from past recipients.

The application period for our January/February 2020 and July/August 2020 Open Stage grants is CLOSED.
Finalists will be contacted about scheduling an in-person interview by the end of September 2019.
The winners of the two grants will be announced in early October 2019.
