Equal Employment Opportunity

Equal Employment Opportunity has been, and will continue to be, a fundamental principle at Rivendell, where employment is based upon personal capabilities and qualifications without discrimination because of race, color, age, sex, sexual orientation, national origin, marital status, citizenship, religion, disability, military status, creed, or any other trait or characteristic protected by law. This policy of Equal Employment Opportunity applies to all policies and procedures relating to recruitment and hiring, compensation, benefits, termination and all other terms and conditions of employment.

Submissions

Playwrights may submit their plays to Rivendell Theatre Ensemble through a literary agent or accompanied by a letter of recommendation by a theater professional (e.g., an artistic director or literary manager at a professional theater).

If neither of these requirements apply to you, you may submit a letter of inquiry, a brief synopsis, and your resume to Janice Pytel, our literary manager. We will contact you should your materials interest us.

Our Mission

Rivendell Theatre Ensemble is a professional theatre company committed to recognizing and cultivating the talents of women in theatre — from playwrights and actors to set designers and costume artists. Rivendell productions explore the unique female perspectives of everyday stories in an intimate, salon environment.

Who We Are

Over the past fifteen years, Rivendell has grown to fill an important role in the Chicago theatre community as the only Equity Theatre in Chicago committed to producing works that integrate and promote the essential female experience.
