Deadline: December 15, 2025
The Ephemeral Players are a new Nonprofit Theater Company based in NYC whose mission is to create accessible immersive theater that empowers emerging artists and supports causes illuminated by plays we produce.
We are currently accepting submissions for new works to produce as part of our upcoming 2026 season. For consideration in our 2026 season, please submit by December 15th, 2025. Any submissions received after this date will be reviewed but will likely be considered for future seasons.
We are interested in collaborating with emerging writers and producing their plays as readings, staged readings, and fully staged productions. We are prioritizing plays with immersive elements/audience interaction that have a social message in their theme. Plays can be of any range of length, from 10-minute to full-length
SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
Format & File Types:
PDF or .docx only. Please name your file: LastName_Title.pdf
Submission Limit:
Up to 2 pieces per artist.
What to expect:
Our artistic team reviews submissions on a rolling basis. If we feel your piece aligns with an upcoming production, reading, or fundraising event, we’ll be in touch.
If you’re interested, you can submit directly on our website at www.ephemeralplayers.org/work-with-us at the submission form towards the bottom half of the page.
We never post opportunities that require a submission fee. LEARN MORE.
