We're looking for groundbreaking short science fiction plays, for writers coming from all walks of life, for daring and innovative creators, for new ideas, revolutionary dreams, crazy stories, for the bold, the daring, and the unique. These are the details:
Once the deadline is closed, we'll read all of the plays submitted. Yes, all of them. From beginning to end. We'll select between 16 and 20 plays, and get back to every writer who has applied. Unfortunately, we won't be able to provide feedback for all but, if you specifically ask for it, we would try our best to get back to you. Sometimes, if necessary, we will ask writers for edits, but only if there is something that we really need changed in order to program the play. Edits are generally related to length, or number of characters.
What happens next:
The selected plays will be paired with directors and cast, and will be given one or two slots during the festival. This means that, as a writer, once you have submitted your play, and done any necessary edits, your work is done (unless you want to get involved in a different capacity as well).Once the festival is over, we will share any profit between all participants. We have an open books policy.
This project is currently on a profit share basis. We are currently applying for funding but are not able to confirm if it will come through until a later date.
Send your plays to:
scifitheatre@gmail.com
We are aiming at programming up to 20 short plays during the festival. Depending on the quality of the material received, and the length of the plays selected, that number could change.
We are looking forward to read your science fiction plays!
