Call For Scripts: The End of the World…in Five Plays
It’s the End of the World…but we still want your scripts…
This Autumn Off The Rock Productions will be performing a theatrical production comprised of five short plays that take place within the final hour before the end of the world.
Interested in submitting a play? Then read on…
Writing Brief:
- Context: An international crisis/event that will impact upon everyone on the planet in the next hour. 1 hour until the end of the world. The plays are set with this in the background, but it is not stated what the calamity is – we just see how the character/characters’ lives are affected by it; how relationships hold up (or not); what people decide is important with time running out…
- Plays should have no more than four characters.
- They should be 10-15 minutes in length.
- Scripts should be original work that has not been performed before in any medium.
- We do not accept adaptations of existing work.
- One entry per person is permitted.
- Please attach scripts, with a cover sheet, in PDF or Word format.
- Pieces will be read by our panel anonymously. Consequently, could you please put your name on the cover sheet only.
- We accept submissions from all over the world.
- Please submit scripts to offtherocksubmissions@gmail.com by 10pm on Thursday 31st May.
