Submissions must be original plays; feature two to four characters with minimal props and costumes, and be limited to 10 pages, not including title and cast pages.

After submissions are read and reviewed by community members, the top five plays are selected for stage readings in June, and local directors and performers will present them on stage in October at DAC.

Cash awards for people’s choice and grand prize plays will be given at staged readings.

Submission deadline is Feb. 9.
