What Are You Looking Forward To...Again?
Play reading series

​
Spooky Action Theater invites you to submit to our New Works in Action program! Under the direction of Gillian Drake, our program gives you the chance to work on a full-length play that is in the home stretch of completion, offering access to professional directors, dramaturgs and actors to help you hear, see and experience your play performed in a staged reading for an invited audience.  Some of Washington DC’s best directors and most talented actors join us in creating an exciting and fulfilling process.

New Submission Criteria for Round 16 Reading Series
“What Are You Looking Forward To… Again?” 
Submissions open April 1 and close June 15 at 11:59 PM
 
Here are a few qualifications for entry:                                            
  1. Plays that push the boundaries of reality with stories too big to fit in a living-room. Imaginative plays telling a human story in a magical way: Magical Realism NOT Science Fiction.
  2. We are looking for full-length plays from playwrights available to participate in person in the rehearsal and reading process.
  3. Plays informed by the challenges of the past but looking for the answers that only come through the optimism of looking forward.
