If you are interested in being a part of an annual local playwrights' festival, then Stone Soup's Original National Playwrights' Festival is for you! Every year, Stone Soup produces (along with a team of directors and actors) up to fourteen original works in their Downstage theatre.
Submissions will be accepted from September 1, 2009 to January 1, 2010. Plays must be submitted by mail (NO electronic submissions will be accepted, sorry!) to this address:
Stone Soup Theatre
c/o Playwrights' Festival
4035 Stone Way N
Seattle, WA 98103
Authors must include TWO printed copies, with a cover letter and cover page. The cover letter should include all contact information, including mailing and email addresses and telephone number and a description of authorial intent. The cover page should include the play's title, author's name, and a character list with age breakdown and brief character descriptions.
The plays themselves must be ORIGINAL and not have been previously professionally produced. Plays should be 10 to 30 minutes in length, with minimal set, costumes, and characters. Any plays that do not fit submission and style criteria will be blindly eliminated.
If you are interested in and capable of putting together the production as well (finding directors, actors, and/or costume and props resources), please include this information in your cover letter.
Thank you for your time and good luck!
