Santa Monica Theatre (SMT) located on famous Ocean Avenue is now accepting submissions of original short plays. SMT produces five short plays on their open air stage just feet from the sand of Santa Monica Beach. This festival of work focuses on story, character, dialogue, and talent performance. This contest is open to everyone and we encourage those who reside outside of the Los Angeles area to enter. Our event will be captured to be broadcast at a later date on our website: www.santamonicatheatre.com. Writers selected who are unable to join us may watch online.
This contest is designed to help writers see their creations come to life with actors on stage, in front of a live audience. Hearing and seeing your script performed is a profound experience, and is essential for the creative growth of any playwright. Take advantage of this unique opportunity by submitting your script today!
One script will be selected as the winner and will be cast with professional actors (auditioned out of Los Angeles).
The script will be preformed live on stage at Santa Monica Theatre in Santa Monica, California.
The event will be captured for those who can not attend in person.
Writers will be acknowledged on stage, as well as on the Santa Monica Theatre’s website and Social Media channels.
