URGE: a night of new writing
International callout
WE
WANT
YOUR
WORDS
CLOSED
Deadline: April 15, 2024
Deadline extended to April 22, 2024
We‘re looking for unproduced short plays to stage in the style of physical theatre at our summer premiere event, URGE.
At VERBOOOM, we believe physical theatre is for all bodies. We love words, and writing from movement. Radical collaboration is at the heart of how we research and develop new works.
Our team has worked and lived internationally, and while we continue to support those international collaborations, we‘re trying to build a home for physical theatre in Seattle.
Submission Guidelines
Max 10 minutes (10 pages or less)
Max 3 actors (no 1-person plays)
Minimal technical reqs
No musicals
Unproduced (staged readings okay)
Details
NO submission fee.
At this time, we function on a volunteer basis. If accepted, we can offer 1 comp ticket and some photos/video of the performance.
We’ll develop the plays as physical theatre pieces.
The plays will premier July 19, 2024 at the Jewelbox Theatre, Seattle.
To submit
Email your submissions to hello at verbooom.com.
Please confirm in the email that you consent to some lines of your play being replaced with movement.
