Director Stewart J. Zully, in association with Columbia-Greene Community College, has announced a play competition for spring 2013 that focuses on the subject of former President John Fitzgerald Kennedy.

Taking its inspiration from the 50th anniversary of the J.F.K. assassination, in 2013, the Columbia-Greene Playwright Project 2013 kicks off with requests for plays related to any of the individuals connected to the date Nov. 22, 1963, including such figures as J.F.K. himself, former President Lyndon B. Johnson, Jackie Kennedy or Lee Harvey Oswald. Submitted plays should be full length, with a maximum of eight characters. Only one play per writer will be accepted.

"I am please to initiate this exciting new project at Columbia-Greene Community College," Zully said.

Deadline for submission is February 1, 2013. 

The selected play will be chosen March 15, with the winning playwright receiving a $200 stipend.
