Emerging Playwrights: Final Call for 2017 New Works Festival!
The New Works Festival is currently seeking script submissions from emerging playwrights and we are less than a week away from our deadline for the 2017 Festival.
New Works is open to current and former University of Alberta students (alumni from within the last 5 years). Undergrads, graduate and Phd students are welcome. From the submissions, up to 4 scripts will be selected through a blind jury and produced at the 2017 New Works Festival.
Development time is provided, along with one on one mentorship with this year’s professional playwright mentor, Governor General’s award nominee and winner of this year’s Gwen Pharis Ringwood Prize for Drama, Beth Graham.
Deadline to submit is JULY 31, 2016.
