To submit a play to be uploaded as a Theatre Alberta eScript, you must:

- be a Theatre Alberta member;
- be from, a resident of, or a former* resident of Alberta (*at least one year);
- your play must have been produced at least once in Alberta, but has not been published. (Yes - fringe festival productions are acceptable.)

If an eScript does become published in book form, Theatre Alberta's Library will remove the eScript from our website. It is your responsibility to notify Theatre Alberta if your play becomes published.

  • Best number to reach you.

  • Cataloguing Information

    Information provided in this section will be inputed into the Theatre Alberta Library online catalogue. This means that your eScript can appear in users' search results; it will be treated the same as any of our other 19,000+ titles in our Library database. Click here to view the catalogue.

  • *This can either be the year the play was last produced or the year the script was last updated.
  • Check the genre(s) that best fit your play. You can add additional subject headings (i.e. search terms) below.
  • e.g. 60 minutes
  • Please enter a number from 0 to 99.

    Please indicate the minimum number of actors needed to perform your play.

    Unlike the other titles in our Library, eScripts provides you the opportunity to provide more information to users to help "sell" your script. Information inputed below will appear as a listing in our Library blog feed, and will be linked to your play listing on our eScripts webpage.

    Information listed here is at your discretion - provide as much or as little as you think will help convince users to browse through your work. This is your art - take a few minutes to celebrate it below!

  • Use the space below to provide more information about the story, setting, characters and other aspects of your play that the audience should know. If you have indicated that the script uses actor doubling for multiple characters, include your suggestions on how the roles should be divided.
    Please provide more information about the play's previous production(s). Include year it was first produced, city, producing company and (if applicable) festival. You may also wish to include the cast and crew from the debut production.
