The annual guild resource directory is the one – perhaps the only – indispensable guide I recommend to all practicing and emerging playwrights.
--Michael R. Weller, playwright
The DG Resource Directory is an essential tool for any playwright, from the novice to the experienced. It is user-friendly and complete, and playwrights from all over the country will find the regional listings and city guides to be invaluable. No playwright should be without it.
-- Rebecca Gilman, playwright
I can't imagine anyone writing for the theatre who won't find it useful bordering on essential.
-- Jeffrey Sweet , playwright
