Time for PlayFest submissions

The Actors Theater of Orcas Island is looking for short play submissions from Orcas Island writers.

The Actors Theater of Orcas Island is looking for short play submissions from Orcas Island writers. Whether you are a seasoned playwright or have always wanted to give it a try, they would love to consider your work for the 10th annual PlayFest, which highlights the talents of local writers, actors, and directors.

Each year they see new and refreshing plays, from one end of the spectrum to the other, by writers new and seasoned. No genre is off limits.

To celebrate its 10th year, the theater is asking for  plays that incorporate the theme “10” but it is not a requirement.

Seven local plays will be selected for a full production taking place in the last weekend in April and the first weekend in May.

Play submission deadline is Saturday, Jan. 31, 2015. Guidelines and samples are available to ensure each has the appropriate information for submission. Early submission is desirable so writers can receive feedback and make revisions if desired.

For guidelines and questions, contact Michele Griskey: griskey@centurytel.net or 376-3848.
