PLAY SUBMISSIONS
Transformation Theatre is now accepting script submissions for our 2024 Reading Season.
Please be sure to read the following and complete the submission application.
Deadline for submissions is August 1, 2023
Due to the success of our virtual platform, Transformation Theatre shall continue to present our
readings online.
Transformation Theatre, Inc. accepts unsolicited submissions from playwrights around the globe.
Playwrights at all stages of their career are encouraged to submit.
Each play will be considered and reviewed in the order it was received.
The first and extremely important step is the submission form.
This is where the process really begins and the decision to move forward in our process starts
here.
Our review/evaluation process includes three members of our team, including the Founding Producing
Artistic Director, Founding Co-Artistic Director, and one member of our board of directors. Those selected
after the initial reading will be evaluated by the entire Board of Directors for approval. Unfortunately, we
cannot provide feedback on plays that are not selected for our development process.
If selected, you will be notified by the Artistic Director to further discuss the process and timing. Our
process in general is to provide initial feedback on the play, developmental work with a Director and
Dramaturg and to produce a virtual reading with a Dramaturg led Q&A and audience feedback. All the
while, you will be working with a professional creative team including a Director, Dramaturg, Actors and
Designers.
What we are looking for is a strong script and a talented playwright who will benefit from our process. TT,
Inc. is looking for scripts that fit our mission. Due to the nature of presenting online, we request that the
play require no more than 4 actors. Play length should be between 90-110 minutes.
Our mission is to develop new plays that give voice to underrepresented people. Sadly, that
includes a very large number of people who identify in various ways. As we can only produce six
readings per year, we find that we must narrow our focus in each season.
For 2024, we are looking for plays that explore and give voice to themes and those who identify
as
• AAPI
• Neurodiverse (specifically Autism)
• Blind and Vision Impaired
• Gender Equality
We are also interested in finding intersectionality in marginalized voices. Though we are looking
for stories about and for those specific voices, it does not exclude others.
What we are not looking for are plays that are incomplete, synopses, or that do not meet our criteria and
mission. We do not produce musicals (though plays with music may be considered), children's theatre or
screenplays. We are not looking for micro plays, 10 minute shorts, one-person shows, kitchen comedies
or living room dramas that don’t stretch themselves out of the genre a bit. Unfinished plays won’t benefit
from our process and neither will plays that have extensive production histories.
We are thrilled that we continue to receive an overwhelming number of submissions every year. As such,
our response time may be as long as three to five months. Please be patient and do not contact us
before three months if you have not heard from us.
PLEASE BE SURE TO READ THE SUBMISSION CRITERIA CAREFULLY. ANY SUBMISSIONS THAT
DO NOT FOLLOW TT, INC.'S GUIDELINES OR THAT CONTAIN INSUFFICIENT REQUIRED DETAILS
WILL BE REJECTED WITHOUT NOTIFICATION.
