We are always open for funding applications. If you would like to be considered for funding from GADS then send an application to our co-Presidents. Please be sure to include the play title, any creative ideas you have for the performance, why you think the play should be put on, and an overview of budget, including rights. Please note that we tend not fund shows in the Corpus Playroom due to its ongoing access issues. We look forward to hearing from you!
