The Greenhouse Submissions

web site

Science and the Arts are intricately linked, as they both seek to answer the age-old questions of humanity. Many people see science as a debunker of myth, but in actuality science is as magical as imagination. What is more spectacular than the feats of Mother Nature, the beauty of the human body, or the alchemy of a lab? Strange Sun seeks full length plays that explore the interplay of science and art. Plays that explore specific people, theories, concepts, scientific methods of working are all exciting possibilities for submission.

Playwrights should submit a copy of their script IN PDF FORM. Please include a brief synopsis, cast list, workshop history (if any) and a short paragraph on what you would like to get out of an extended developmental process .
Please have your contact information on your script as well as in the body of your email..

Submit to:
strangesuntheater@gmail.com
In the subject line please write: GREENHOUSE: SCIENCE/ART

Submissions are open from September 1st – November 1st, 2015. Any plays submitted after that time will not be considered.

We will select four plays as part of the Strange Sun Theater Greenhouse On Book Reading Series in April of 2016. Some of those four plays may be chosen for further development with Strange Sun.
