PLAY SUBMISSIONS
Please Note: Plays & synopses
will NOT be accepted or considered via e-mail or any electronic submission.
At this time we are accepting new, previously unproduced full-length
plays from literary agents. We are unable to accept unsolicited manuscripts.
If you do not have an agent, you can send us a letter of inquiry along
with a synopsis and a 10-page selection from the script. If the material
interests us, we will contact you with a request for the complete script.
Please note that lawyers and law firms do not qualify as “professional
representation” in this venue.
Although we accept plays throughout the year, we complete most of our
reading between April and October, and most playwrights are notified
of the status of their submissions in the late summer or fall. The Humana
Festival of New American Plays, Actors Theatre of Louisville's main
venue for producing new work, is an annual event held in February and
March. Please note that we do not produce musicals, children’s shows
or plays that have received press coverage in New York City or an Equity
production, and do not review those scripts.
Our current program to identify emerging playwrights is the National
Ten-Minute Play Contest. This contest for one-act plays of ten pages
or less is open to any and all United States playwrights. Click here for information about the Ten-Minute Play Contest.
Or, if you prefer, send us your snail mail address and we will be glad
to send you a copy of the brochure.
We appreciate your interest in Actors Theatre of Louisville and wish
you the best of luck in your playwriting endeavors.
