Headwaters New Play Festival - Submission Guidelines
To be considered for the Headwaters New Play Festival, a play must never have had a professional production and the playwright must be available to attend the workshop week (August 23-27, 2016).
One of our goals this year is to more accurately reflect the diversity of human experience by including a play by a female playwright.
The Headwaters program is the source of new plays of the West: plays set in the current, historic, or mystic western United States; plays by playwrights originally from or living in the West; plays that deal with themes connected to the real or mythic West; and plays that re-imagine what “West” means.
The deadline for submissions for the 2016 Headwaters New Play Festival is February 28th, 2016.
The deadline for submissions for the 2016 Headwaters New Play Festival is February 28th, 2016.
