Posted by: Official_Press_Release 10:36 am EST 01/17/18

We want your plays!

Red Bull Theater’s annual SHORT NEW PLAY FESTIVAL returns on Monday, July 16, 2018 at the Lucille Lortel Theatre in New York City. Our goal is to inspire contemporary writers to be in conversation with classical theater in a multitude of creative and surprising ways.

Six brand-new short plays will be selected from an OPEN SUBMISSION process and presented in staged readings performed alongside new short plays by two commissioned writers, TINA HOWE (Painting Churches, Pride's Crossing) and DOUG WRIGHT (I Am My Own Wife, Quills).

YOUR WRITING MISSION: Inspired by our season's theme of "The Language of Love," write a new short play of 10 minutes or less that is any of the following: written in heightened language or verse, incorporates classical themes, or adapts a classical story.

Plays will be selected based on:
Relevance to Red Bull Theater’s Mission
Incorporation of the theme: Language of Love
Utilization of one or more of The Script guidelines.
Excellence of the work.

SELECTED PLAYS will receive a staged reading performance in the Festival on Monday, July 16, 2018, directed by Pamela Berlin and Evan Yionoulis, performed by a company of some of New York's finest actors.

SELECTED PLAYWRIGHTS will receive a commissioning fee of $300 plus a travel reimbursement of up to $400 to attend the festival rehearsal and performance (receipts required). Playwrights are expected to attend the festival on Monday, July 16 in New York City.

Submissions close at 12 NOON on Monday, April 23, 2018.
