Best of PlayGround People’s Choice & New Play Commission
Support your favorite play/playwright by casting your “vote” (i.e., making a tax-deductible donation) for the Best of PlayGround People’s Choice Award. The top vote-getter will receive a paid commission to adapt their award-winning ten-minute play into a new full-length over the next year. It’s one of the ways we can work together to help launch tomorrow’s great playwrights today! You can also vote/donate via Venmo (@playgroundsf) and Zelle (info@playground-sf.org). Indicate your choice of play(s) in your order comments and/or donor acknowledgment section.
