FUSION Theatre Announces our 3nd Annual
Ten Minute New Play Festival
The Seven: New Works Fest
June 19-22, 2008
Seven new ten minute plays.
Seven different directors.
And a stellar ensemble cast of New Mexico's finest actors.
Last Summer FUSION presented our 2nd Annual New Ten Minute Play Festival, The Seven: No Regrets. An international call for entries introduced New Mexico audiences to world premieres of works chosen from up and coming playwrights drawn from 39 states and 6 countries. To view our previous "Seven" productions, click here.
This summer, we're at it again.
Our audience has spoken: on-line voting by FUSION Theatre Company patrons has produced this year's theme: SOMETHING LEFT UNSAID.
And this year, theatre management has agreed to provide a Jury Prize: a flight to lovely Albuquerque, NM to see your professionally produced play! (Jury comprised of nationally prominent theatre professionals.)
GUIDELINES FOR PLAY SUBMISSION
* Each script must be no more than ten pages long.
* Plays should be inspired by the theme SOMETHING LEFT UNSAID.
* Each playwright may submit up to two scripts.
* Previously submitted plays, plays that have received production and any unsolicited longer one-act or full-length plays are not accepted for consideration in
The Seven.
* Each manuscript must include a title page with name, address, phone number, and e-mail.
The easiest way to get 'em to us is via e-submission. We require a nominal $5 fee to offset print and distribution costs, which you can pay conveniently on-line at our ticketing site. When you click on the following link, you'll be taken to a page where you will "Add to Cart" the $5 fee you'll see there, then, after you pay via credit card or PayPal, your receipt (also emailed to you) will include a web address that allows you to upload your script. If this is your first time visiting our ticketing site, you'll be asked to create a simple account that protects your transaction and allows us to contact you if something goes awry. All patron and artist information, including email addresses, are kept strictly confidential: FUSION never shares any information with any other organizations.
To access our e-submissions, please click this link.
Alternatively, if this all sounds too high-tech or Big Brotherish to you, or if you just don't want to spend $5, you may send one copy each of up to two
different submissions to:
FUSION Theatre Co.
Attn: The Seven
700 1st Street NW
Albuquerque, New Mexico 87102
DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSION IS THURSDAY, MAY 1, 2008!
Entries will be acknowledged by e-mail once they have been received by our literary manager. All playwrights will be informed of the FUSION's final
selection no later than May 12.
Staffing constraints prohibit our returning any submissions. The volume of scripts submitted hampers our ability to comment individually on each work; therefore we do not offer criticism.
Questions: use our contact form, attn: The Seven.
