Deadline: September 30, 2025
All scripts will be accepted ONLY thru email at tenplays19@gmail.com
TWO SUBMISSIONS ONLY PLEASE.
The Actors Theatre Playhouse of West Chesterfield, New Hampshire, and Brattleboro, Vermont, is accepting ten-minute play submissions for its festival in June of 2026.
Email is best for us to get your manuscript to our review committee as quickly as possible. Please include a title page with your contact information attached to the script. Ten-minute plays should play in one scene, have minimal scenic requirements, not exceed ten-twelve pages in length and have two to six characters. Upon acceptable receipt, a return email will confirm your delivery to us.
The number of scripts we can process for this year’s festival is limited, so submit soon if you want to be considered for production this year.

We will keep excess scripts for consideration next year. Approximately 12 finalists will be selected and notified, with eight winners announced following auditions and casting in Jan 2026.
We regret that we cannot offer any financial prizes at this time. The winners will receive production of their play as part of our next Ten-Minute Play Festival and multiple tickets should the authors be able to attend.
The goal of the festival is both to encourage the production of new works, while exposing our actors and directors to the techniques and practices of working with playwrights and producing new plays.
