The First Draft Playwrights' Circle of the Wilmington Drama League will host its annual staged reading series on January 15 & 16, 2010. Accepted plays will be produced as fully staged, script-in-hand productions followed by a Q&A with the actors, director, playwright and audience. We will be accepting submissions now through November 23, 2009. You may e-mail your submission to firstdraftwdl (at) gmail (dot) com, or you may snail mail it to:

First Draft Theatre
Wilmington Drama League
10 W. Lea Boulevard
Wilmington, DE 19802

Selections will be made by the end of November and selected playwrights will be notified no later than December 1, 2009. We will send e-mail confirmation of receipt of your script within 24 hours of its arrival.

****PLEASE NOTE THAT ANY PLAYWRIGHT WHOSE WORK IS ACCEPTED FOR THIS SERIES MUST BE ABLE TO ATTEND THE STAGED READING AT THE WILMINGTON DRAMA LEAGUE TO PARTICIPATE IN THE Q&A.****

We're not limiting submissions to playwrights who live within a specific geographical area, but because the purpose of this series is to provide feedback to the playwright, we do require the playwright's presence at the reading.

If you have any questions, please send them via e-mail to the address above (and of course, replace the words in parentheses with the applicable symbols; I wrote it like that so you could see the whole e-mail address). If, for any reason, you have trouble with that e-mail address, you can send questions and submissions directly to me: kristyn (at) kristynleighrobinson (dot) com, but please try the First Draft address first because I'd like to have them all in one place.
