The Festival will take place in the 98-seat main stage.
We are looking for self-produced pieces which are built around a social concern.

Selected plays will receive a tech rehearsal during the day on January 11, full tech support, PR and marketing as part of the festival and a prime spot in this year's event There is no fee to apply, and a production stipend of $50 per selected play will be paid.
