— from Cara Russell and The Actors Theater of Orcas Island —
The Actor’s Theater of Orcas Island is looking for short play submissions from Orcas Island writers. Whether you are a seasoned playwright or have always wanted to give it a try, we’d love to consider your work for the 10th annual PlayFest, which highlights the talents of local writers, actors, and directors.
Each year we see new and refreshing plays, from one end of the spectrum to the other, by writers new and seasoned. No genre is off limits!
To celebrate our 10th year, we would like to see plays that incorporate the theme ‘10’. Though it is not a requirement, we’d love to see what clever uses you can come up with.
Seven local plays will be selected for a full production taking place in the last weekend in April and the first weekend in May.
Play submission deadline is Saturday, January 31, 2015. Guidelines and samples are available to ensure each has the appropriate information for submission. Early submission is desirable so writers can receive feedback and make revisions if desired.
For guidelines and questions, contact Michele Griskey: griskey@centurytel.net or 376-3848.
