PROJECT SUBMISSIONS
Women Center Stage: The Next 25 The Women Center Stage Festival, formerly an initiative of Culture Project, New York’s premier home for socially conscious theater, is returning to New York this spring. Women Center Stage is part multidisciplinary performance/part multicultural salon; a place for artists to build community, share their stories, and create a fresh theatrical landscape.Founded in 1996, Culture Project is the preeminent destination for artistic work that investigates the most urgent social and political issues of our time.

For their 25th year, Women Center Stage will honor the work of past collaborators and human rights defenders while supporting new voices as they create the future of theater. This year’s theme is “The Next 25” - an ode for what’s to come as we heal, celebrate, dismantle, and rebuild.

o Categories: One-Act Plays, Short Plays o Submission Information United Beyond Borders Hear Thalia’s Daughters Laughing seeks short comedic plays from female-identified playwrights for publication
This international volume is hoped to be multi-lingual, thus giving each playwright a chance to submit a short piece in their mother tongue and its translated into English version. Submissions from the United States/UK/Australia/Nigeria/etc. shall remain in original unless the author knows and speaks fluently another language or can work with a translator. The volume will have 10-12 comedies. o Deadline: December 31 o Application Fee: None o Eligibility: The play must be a comedy (because the doctor is in the house and she has prescribed laughter), The script must be written by a female identified playwright (because the volume is coordinated/commissioned via an organization dedicated to womxn playwrights exclusively), The script must be short, i.e., no longer than 20-30 pages (because I, like you, crave for comedic essence), The script must be composed during “the longest year of our lives,” or how I call 2020-21 (because the intention is to see how womxn have used laughter as a coping mechanism during the pandemic), hence, it can be realistic, symbolic, absurd: you choose, you are free! It could have had a reading, two readings, or 1,000 readings on Zoom. Our main goal is to see how we understand and produce comedy worldwide and how we tap into our creative resources to deal with the trauma of a pandemic via mild to strong laughs. Submit your piece by New Year’s Eve of 2021 to fflorescu@pace.edu with the subject line “Thalia’s Daughters.” The process of reading, evaluating, and making a decision will commence with a good wine, a great laughter, and a chance to see womxn in their full, vibrant potential. Info about the publisher and how to devise our own apotropaic masks will be announced at a later date.

o Categories: Scenes, Monologues, Songs o Submission Information Welcome 2021 playwrights! We are entering our eighth year of writing pieces about 365 historical women a year! We would love to have you write with us! All of the information on how to participate is below. Because there was so much out of our control in 2020, you are able to write about any women you want, even if we’ve already covered them. (Usually, we don’t take duplicates) o Deadline: December 31 o Application Fee: Free o Eligibility: FIRST STEP: Choose a woman or women to write about. We definitely need more pieces about women from 1700s and prior and pieces on women who lived in Africa, Asia, and Australia. Once you have chosen some options, you will fill out the claim form. 2021 CLAIM FORM SECOND STEP: You will receive a confirmation email. You are not officially writing about anyone until you have received this confirmation email from 365womenayear@gmail.com. It can take a few weeks to get a confirmation email depending on the volume of claims we receive. THIRD STEP: Happy writing. If at any point throughout the year, you get a hankering to write about someone else, simply fill out a new claim form. Plays can be any length, any number of characters, any language, any genre (musicals included), and the playwriting format you are most comfortable with. PLEASE INCLUDE A LIST OF CHARACTERS at the beginning of the play. It is okay if more historical women end up in your piece than you claimed. When choosing someone very different than you, do your research and be thoughtful about what you are asking future actors to perform. FOURTH STEP: Submitting your piece. Please follow the directions, as your piece will not be officially submitted otherwise. You will email your piece to 365womenayear@gmail.com. Follow the directions below: In the subject line you will put: 2021/Name of historical woman/Play Title/Page Number/Your Name. (If you have many historical women in your piece, simply write “MANY WOMEN” in place of the name of the historical women in the subject line.) Include YOUR 100 word playwriting bio in the BODY of the email. (If you have already written with us and do NOT need your bio updated then do not include your bio.) Write out your historical/play info to be searchable on the website in the following format: Each historical woman needs to be listed separately, include ANY existing woman who appears in your piece, even if you didn’t specifically claim them. New: We want the women to be searchable by country of birth and their background so it is easier when people are putting together festivals. Example below: Country of birth: France Race/Ethnicity/Heritage: White, Belgian-French Attach your play as a PDF and submit! You can always email us if you have any questions. Please understand, that your bio won’t be listed on the web site until your play is turned in and processed. You can write about as many women as you want and they can all be in the same piece, or separate pieces. It is okay if the piece is simply about the historical woman or women, but they don’t appear. Any length welcome from 2 pages-full length. Any number of characters. Any language. Any genre. Musicals included. You are always allowed to revise your piece. When you do, email it again with REVISION/Play title/Playwright/Year in the subject line and the revised piece attached as a PDF. Women MUST have existed. *They can be living or dead. *Our plays are loosely based on these historical figures. *History may have forgotten their name but we know they existed and they need to be covered. This happened often to those enslaved where we have no recording of their actual name and women from ancient times. If you are writing a piece about a woman who is from a different culture/ethnicity/race/religion than you, please do your research and be mindful and respectful. Be thoughtful of what you are asking your future actors to do and say. It is never a good look for a white playwright to have a piece full of racial slurs. It’s just not necessary. Research, collaboration, and respect are key. Yes, we plan to do this every year. You retain ALL rights to your pieces and may submit them anytime and anywhere you want to. When one of your 365 pieces gets produced, we will put it on the web site and tweet about it! Nothing will be done with your play without your discretion. If a theatre wants to produce your piece, we will contact you. While the play info is searchable, interested parties cannot read your piece unless you give permission. When publishing opportunities arise, it is up to you whether or not you would like your piece to be included. We have had festivals all over the world and appeared in The Dramatist. We have playwrights from all over the world participating.

The contest winner will receive a $1,000 royalty advance in addition to publication. o Deadline: ASAP, ongoing, announced each June 1 o Application Fee: None o Eligibility: You can start the submission process by contacting us here. We will only consider manuscripts with a running time between 20 and 90 minutes. Submissions must be family friendly in both subject and language. NO cursing. NO explicitly adult content. We prefer casts that are either balanced or favoring females. The more gender neutral roles, the better. We favor plays and musicals with ensemble casts, where more than just a few have a chance to shine. Plays with elaborate set, costume or technical requirements are not appealing because of the limited resources of many of our customers. Pictures, sketches or descriptions of your vision are always helpful. We recommend your submissions have had at least one production or reading, hopefully staged. We feel this fundamental field test is necessary before a play can be considered for publication since plays are created for the purpose of performance. Manuscripts must be computer-printed in dark ink. We do not require specific formatting. However, your efforts to ensure your script is free of misspellings and typos will help the submissions editor. We hope that Pioneer Drama is your first choice as a publisher, and we encourage you to submit to us exclusively. However, we do accept simultaneous submissions with the understanding that you will accept the first contract you’re offered and not use the situation to seek multiple offers from which to choose. If you receive another offer, please notify us immediately so we may rescind your submission. The following information must accompany your submission or query: 100-200 word synopsis. Cast list that indicates the number of female roles, the number of male roles and the number of roles that can be performed by either gender. We do not accept one-person shows. Running time. CD and/or score for musicals. We appreciate the opportunity to hear the music, if possible. Set design(s). Please feel free to provide diagrams and/or pictures. Proof of production or staged reading (i.e., review, program, etc.) A DVD of your performance is ideal, though not required. Age of intended audience. A self-addressed envelope of sufficient size with appropriate postage for the return of your materials. We will NOT return manuscripts or accompanying material if this is not included.
