Short Play Festival
The Players Theatre Short Play & Musical Festival produces three - three week festivals - three times a year: Luv (February), NYC (June) and Boo! (October).
Submissions are gathered from all over the country with 15 short plays or musicals being selected by a panel of judges for each festival. Each week a winner - selected by audience vote - receives the honor of "Best of the Week" and $100 prize. Plays should have a running time of 15 minutes or less.
The shows are produced entirely by the playwright and their team, are non union, and are presented at the Steve & Marie Sgouros Black Box Theatre - located on the 3rd floor of the historic Players Theatre in the heart of Greenwich Village - NYC.
