Random Access Workshop Readings

web site

Random Access Theatre Company is accepting scripts for consideration for their 2015-2016 reading series RAWR (Random Access Workshop Readings).

What is RAWR?

RAWR develops new theatrical work from emerging New York City-based writers in a three-stage process over six months. Random Access Theatre will provide direction, space, actors and mentorship through a series of progressively larger events beginning with a small table read, continuing with an invited audience read and finally a larger public staged reading. After the staged reading, Random Access Theatre Company may consider producing the work as a part of the following mainstage season.

Three scripts will be accepted on a rolling basis, the deadline to be considered for the first reading of 2015 is July 15th. RAWR is highly interested in theatre that imagines and reclaims work and themes of the past as a way to engage in modern issues. Traditional and non-traditional plays, musicals, and plays with music and/or movement are all welcome. Due to the heavy focus on script development, early-stage work is most appropriate for this series. Women, people with disabilities, and people of color are strongly encouraged to apply.

To apply send your script as a pdf attachment or google doc, a synopsis (one page maximum), character breakdown, and a short letter explaining why you think your work would be a good fit for RAWR to submissionsRAWR@gmail.com.
