(Hey, ASW members! If you submit to this production company, tell them Aimee Gonzalez said hello! This production company is comprised of my old classmates from grad school! They’re great!) Electric Pear Productions is accepting submissions of original plays and musicals for future production in New York City.
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.
Congrats to Steven Laing for being accepted to the Tisch Musical Theatre Writing Program at New York University as a book writer/librettist. Congratulations!
