Submission Needed for FLYING BLIND

QCQTC_logoTAKING SHORT SUBMISSIONS FOR JULY 11th READING!

We still need a few more play snippets for FLYING BLIND next week.

Creative types! We want your original play snippets for our upcoming event: FLYING BLIND: a casting lottery.

We are looking for selections 10-20 minutes in length that could be:

  • a complete, independent scene or one act
  • selections from a full length work

Our purpose here is to give local and emerging playwrights a chance to expose their work, and also try out some ideas on a small scale for work they may want to develop.

We will select 4-6 play snippets to be read aloud by a cast of audience members- chosen at random that night.

*In the spirit of queering our theatre experience, there will be no restrictions or redrawing of the cast according to gender/sexuality/race/age etc. We encourage your work to be unaffected by the fate of the lottery- or hope that you will otherwise be open to the fluid possibility of how your characters are cast.

Please forward any submissions or questions to lindseyamercer@gmail.com.

Submissions are due no later than July 6th. If chosen, artists will be notified by Saturday July 9th.

We can’t wait to see what you’ve got! 🙂
