Literary manager is a position on the artistic staff of a theatre company. The Literary Manager is responsible for reading and evaluating script submissions from playwrights, and assisting the Artistic Director with selecting plays for production, and planning the shows for the theatre's season. Sometimes, the Literary Manager also doubles as a production Dramaturge. In a theatre company that develops new work, the Literary Manager may work with a playwright to revise and polish a script.
