*************************************************************************
We strongly believe that self producing a play or a musical can offer a very important tool for the growth of every playwright’s work.
Once a playwright sees their work onstage, it provides an opportunity for the playwright to improve or modify their story.
It’s also a great opportunity to invite people from the industry to see your production. People are more likely to go see a show than to read an unsolicited script, as some industry people receive on average thousands of submissions per month, and they understand that the journey for a show to be successful often goes through several productions
Our team is completely dedicated to help get your work seen.
We are always with you to help, from the first moment of your tech rehearsal to the closing of your last show.
You will never be left alone during the process. We will help you to choose some of the 85 set/furniture props we offer to dress your stage for your run, and give you a complete crash course on how to use the audio/light/video system, which are intentionally very user friendly.
After we show you how to use the tools we provide and how to utilize the space, you will be able to rehearse your tech rehearsal with whatever plan works best for you and your production.
A team member will be present to provide prime responses to every inquiry, as well as a telephone # you can call anytime during relevant hours throughout the run of your show
In 11 years and 19 seasons we have successfully hosted 1,200 plays and 300 musicals and rewarded with cash prizes over 300 artists who participated in our Festival.
