Theater Resources Unlimited (TRU) will host a Writer/Producer Virtual Speed Date on Sunday, Jan. 18, 2026, offering writers a chance to pitch projects and receive feedback from experienced producers from both commercial and nonprofit theater.
The submission deadline is Jan. 4, with early applications given priority. Participants will meet virtually with more than 11 producers, including Tony winners and Broadway veterans, for guided sessions designed to refine pitching skills and expand professional networks.
“This is an opportunity to practice your pitch, gain valuable insights, and build relationships,” said TRU. “Even if a project isn’t optioned immediately, writers walk away with a stronger pitch and new ideas.”
Confirmed producers include Merrie L. Davis, Jane Dubin, Cody Lassen, and Gene Fisch Jr., among others. Coaching sessions begin at 2 p.m. and 3 p.m., with pitch sessions scheduled for 4 p.m. and 5:30 p.m.
Applications and more information are available on the TRU website, with submissions to be emailed to TRUnltd@aol.com.
