Before the summary: a great opportunity for writers & theatre enthusiasts & in/for our beloved HEll’s Kitchen!
The number of entries in the ongoing Short Play Lab are a fickle thing. After a little surge at the beginning of the season, we’re now facing a dire shortage of plays for the October Lab. I don’t know what the problem is, but I’d appreciate some more shows for the upcoming Lab (Oct. 19 – 20). New participants are welcome! The rules are easy-peasy:
Deadline is Oct. 10. Notification will be immediately after submission, if not sooner. The sooner you get your script in, the more time you have to prepare. Get that script in pronto!
Plays should be 1 – 10 pp. in standard playscript format.* (The shorter the better; shorter plays get priority.) Include a title page, as the first page of the script, with your contact info, E-Mail Preferred.
Submit scripts in MS-Word.
You produce the play wherever you live. The SPL provides the theatre (at the Roy Arias Studios, 300 West 43rd Street, NYC).
Productions must be non-union: no showcases please! (And no Equity waivers, either.)
Keep production values to a minimum: costumes and hand props are okay. We provide rehearsal cubes, chairs, and a table. You can’t leave your stuff in the theatre overnight.
We provide a board op, box office, and venue management.
There are no fees. The SPL keeps the door.
Tickets are $20. Each playwright and director gets to watch his/her show for free. There are no other comps.
There will be a tech rehearsal on the afternoon of Oct. 19.
Every play gets 2 performances, 1 on Sat. and 1 on Sun. Each play will be part of 1 of 2 programs: Program A or Program B, but not both. Program A takes place at 7 pm Sat. and 4 pm Sun. Program B takes place at 9 pm Sat. and 2 pm Sun.
We don’t do staged readings. Be off-book, please! Plays not off-book during tech will be removed from the line-up.
THE MOST POPULAR PRODUCTION IN EACH PROGRAM RECEIVES A CASH PRIZE OF $75. Winners are determined by polling patrons at the box office.
*12 pt Times Roman; character names in the middle on their own line; line spaces between speeches and between speeches and stage directions; indented stage directions.
The SPL is a lot of fun and a good way to see your work on its feet in a supportive environment. It’s also a great way to see actors and directors at work, so you can recruit people for later productions.
To submit a script, send it as an attachment, in Word format, to john.chatterton@gmail.com. Any questions, don’t hesitate to shoot me an E-mail! john.chatterton@gmail.com.
Thanks, John Chatterton Executive producer, Short Play Lab.
