We are now accepting director submissions for shows to be produced in 2026. Directors may submit 1-3 prospective scripts to be considered.

Comedies, dramas, and musicals may be submitted. New pieces as well as old favorites are strongly encouraged. All productions will be considered for suitability with our audience demographic, venues, resources, and marketability.
