About the company
Writers' Theatre, Inc., a tax-exempt nonprofit based in Glencoe, Illinois, is a federal grant recipient that receives project grants from the National Endowment for the Arts to support theatrical production and new-play development. The organization operates exclusively as a prime recipient of NEA grants; it has no federal contracting footprint and does not work as a subrecipient on other federal grants.
Writers' Theatre's federal footprint consists entirely of NEA project grants. The organization has received nine awards from the National Endowment for the Arts spanning 2010 through 2026, with $2.4 million in combined obligated dollars. Recent work includes a project grant awarded January 1, 2026, to support the production of Leopoldstadt by Tom Stoppard (completion date December 31, 2026), and project grants from January 1, 2023, and January 1, 2022, each supporting the commissioning and development of new plays and musicals through the organization's Literary Development Initiative. Activity is episodic and sparse — one award per year in 2017 and 2018, then gaps before a 2022 award, another in 2023, and the most recent grant in 2026. One award (the current Leopoldstadt production grant) reaches completion within the next twenty-four months and therefore faces potential recompete. Writers' Theatre serves a single federal customer agency (the NEA) and does not subcontract federal grant work to other organizations.
