Ninth Annual Student Ten-Minute Playwriting Festival

Eight new playwrights

 

Forty-nine plays were submitted by high school students from the 16 counties surrounding Sarasota/Bradenton, and eight have been selected for production in the 2021 Student Playwriting Festival in February. A panel of judges will select Best Play and Runner-Up, with playwrights receiving cash scholarships of $1000 and $500, respectively. Although written for the stage, the plays will be adapted for a “radio theater” format since no stage is available during the pandemic. The finished recordings can be heard here February 15-21 — tickets will be available soon.

 

CALL FOR PLAYS

The submission window is now open for entries in Theatre Odyssey’s Sixteenth Annual Ten-Minute Play Festival. See the Festival section for details.

NEW SERVICE FOR LOCAL PERFORMERS

Frequent visitors to this website might have noticed a new menu item above: RECORDING SERVICE. Utilizing the recording equipment purchased for the recent Ten-Minute Play Festival, we can now assist local performers in preparing their audio “reels” to submit to casting directors in search of vocal talent. More details here.

When not acting, directing or writing, Ren Pearson also serves as recording technician and sound designer for Theatre Odyssey’s new recording service.
