Plays

We’re currently closed for submissions.

Please follow us on social media and subscribe to our newsletter to be notified when we open submissions once again. Please also note that we can only consider plays that have had a professional production—we’re unable to read any plays that haven’t yet had a production.

In the case of established writers, we may consider plays for publication that have a professional production contracted for the near future. Please click here to email us with any questions.
