Theatre Unleashed Seeking One Act Submissions for Coffee Shop Shows

Tim Thomas2010-03-16T16:41:44-05:00March 16th, 2010|submission opportunities|

Theatre Unleashed is seeking original short play submissions for our next series in our wildly popular Coffee Shop Shows. The goal of the Coffee Shop Shows are to continue to create theatre for a non-theatre going audience in hopes of spiking their interest to maybe seek out some theatre. And it's inexpensive entertainment! The shows themselves will only be 45-60 minutes long and that includes live music or stand up. Each piece should range anywhere from 30 seconds-10 minutes. We're welcoming anything from monologues to 5 person scenes. There should be an energy and intimacy about these pieces.
