Stay Awake! is accepting original 10-minute play submissions for its second Prism Festival. Selected plays will receive a full staging in New York City at Shetler Studios in The Bridge Theatre, June 2017. A panel of professional theater artists will select the final plays. We request one submission per playwright. Deadline for submission is February 15, 2017.
Plays must be no longer than ten minutes, must be original, and previously unproduced works (student productions are acceptable). We seek pieces that pose a philosophical question, confront the status quo, or somehow empower unheard voices.
Given Stay Awake!'s commitment to education, in particular, the intersection between arts and learning, we actively seek artists who affiliate with an academic institution as a student, staff, or faculty member.
To submit a piece, please visit our website and create an account: http://stayawaketheatre.org/node/add/play-submission. A cover letter is greatly appreciated but not required. Account information will not be given to third parties.
