web site

The Gallery Players, Brooklyn’s premier, award-winning Off-Off Broadway theatre, is seeking plays for its 18th Annual Black Box New Play Festival to be held in June, 2016. Each play selected will be given a Black Box production at Gallery Players and will be performed in a festival format with non-equity actors. Playwrights must be available for rehearsals and use this as an opportunity to continue work on their play. We are particularly interested in shorter pieces.

Submission guidelines:

1. Plays must be un-produced (readings are o.k.)

2. Seeking shorter plays from 10-40 minutes. No full-lengths please.

3. Playwrights may not direct their own work.

4. The deadline for submission is December 31st 2015

5. Please mail two copies of your play, a plot synopsis and a resume to:
