Theatre Roulette is a juried festival.


Submissions must arrive no later than November 1st, 2011.

SUBMISSION GUIDELINES


Scripts should be between 5-45 minutes in length. Scripts of greater lengths will be considered, but due to time constraints, it is unlikely that unsolicited full-length plays will be selected for the festival, unless you are a Nobel or Pulitzer winning writer, in which case, your script will automatically be accepted for production as long as you waive your standard royalty, which would probably be more than the budget for the entire festival. If you are not sure whether or not you have won a Nobel or Pulitzer Prize, please find out through the glory of the world wide web and let us know.


You may submit multiple scripts.


Due to our environmentally conscious president, you must email your script to us. If emailing is absolutely impossible for you, please call us at 614.221.5418 so we can make alternate arrangements.

Please send your script attached as a Microsoft Word (2000 or older) document or PDF format. Scripts should be emailed to andy@madlab.net. Please put “THEATRE ROULETTE SUBMISSION” in the subject line. If “THEATRE ROULETTE SUBMISSION” is not in your subject line, your submission may not be received. All submissions will receive a reply email to ensure that your submission was received.


For ROULETTE, MadLab pays $50 to each playwright or 10% of our box office receipts - whichever is more. The 10% is split among the 9-11 plays that get selected.


If you’ve made it through all of this, congratulations. At least you’ve got the potential patience to deal with the travails of theatrical production. If you have any questions, please email them to Managing Director Andy Batt at andy@madlab.net


Thanks for your interest. Good luck with your submission, and regardless of the outcome here, be sure to keep writing and producing new works.
