About the Residency Program
Residencies can range from one to four weeks and are scheduled throughout the Fall (September-December) and Spring (February-June). As the Center seamlessly combines performance and rehearsal sites with working and communal living spaces, the areas for studio practice are flexible and can be adapted for the residency needs. In addition to the facility, the Center is situated on six-acres of landscaped grounds with outdoor performance areas.
All residencies conduct an ‘Open Rehearsal’ or public presentation to share the working process. The Center can also arrange educational components or collaborative partnerships with the community. Concurrent with the residencies, Watermill Center staff conduct tours of the facilities, grounds and collection, open library hours, as well as educational and outreach programs.
The Watermill Center is thrilled to announce residency partnerships with The New York Theatre Workshop, Métamatic Research Initiative, and The Summer Play Festival. Each partnership offers a different collaboration. These partnerships are in addition to Watermill’s existing Residency Program.
