Submissions are now closed. We are reviewing the submissions for the
September Play of the Month and should have an announcement about the
winner by next week.
*** OCTOBER PLAY OF THE MONTH ***
10-Minute Play of the Month: OCTOBER 2011
The theme for October is the supernatural. There must be a reference to the supernatural in your play.
Deadline: Sunday, October 2, 2011, 11:59 PM
1. Send only one ten-minute play per author to info@nycplaywrights.org
2. The script submission should be sent by email, with the play itself as a file attached to the email. File format should be in either Microsoft Word (.doc) or .pdf.
3. The script can be no longer than 10 pages (not including title page, setting info page, etc. - pages will be counted only from where the actual on-stage directions and dialog begin.)
4. The script should be in standard playscript format. If you are not sure what that is, see this page on the NYCPlaywrights web site:
http://nycp.blogspot.com/p/playscript-formatting-template.html
Plays that are not in standard format, or that are longer than 10 pages will be rejected immediately.
5. Make sure you have your name and your email address on the title page of the script.
6. Plays can be from anybody, anywhere in the world, but must be primarily in English (a few non-English phrases are acceptable, but the phrases must include English translations in production notes or stage directions.)
7. There is no fee for submission - and no payment given for the plays selected. Do not send a submission if you are expecting monetary compensation.
8. The NYCPlaywrights selection decision is final and NYCPlaywrights reserves the right to select no plays from those submitted.
9. The play must have been written by the person making the submission.
10. The play can have had a previous production but cannot have been published.
11. All rights will remain with the playwright.
12. The selected play will be videotaped as a reading during an NYCPlaywrights meeting and posted shortly after, during the month of October.
13. The video recording of the play reading will be posted to the NYCPlaywrights YouTube account and from there embedded into the NYCPlaywrights blog. The embedded section may be an excerpt of the play reading rather than the entire reading. The playwright will be asked to review the video recording and approve it before it is made
public.
14. The play must reflect the month's theme in some meaningful way.
15. The readings that are recorded are actual script-in-hand readings, not productions. To get an idea of what to expect for the final product see the page on the NYCPlaywrights web site with samples of past readings of Plays of the Month: http://nycp.blogspot.com/p/play-of-month.html
Any questions email Nancy at info@nycplaywrights.org
We never post opportunities that require a submission fee. LEARN MORE.
