We are pleased to announce that Toronto's Gay Play Day LGBTQ Theatre Festival is now offering an honorarium to each group involved in the festival. We are also now approved under the Canadian Actors' Equity Association Festival policy.
Gay Play Day 2018 happens September 7 and 8 in the studio at Toronto's Alumnae Theatre.
Please read our 2018 submission guidelines below:
•Each playwright and/or director may submit only one script - send us your best!
•We only accept electronic submissions in Word or PDF format.
•We are looking for short plays or performance pieces that run between 10 and 25 minutes in length.
•The title page should include the playwright's name, the character list and a brief synopsis of the play.
•The title page must also include the company's contact name (if different from playwright), address, phone number and email address.
•Plays should contain no more than 4 characters.
•Technical requirements should be fairly simple. Your set should also be limited. We are interested in your stories, not your scenery or special effects. Plays that require large sets or several set pieces are not suitable for Gay Play Day.
•Musicals, children’s shows, and any unsolicited longer one-act or full-length plays will not be accepted nor receive a response.
•If selected, each company is responsible to cast and rehearse their own play.
•A tech person will be provided by Gay Play Day for the tech rehearsal and performances.
•Groups must be available to perform on the evenings of September 7 and 8 and at the September 8 matinee. Groups must also be available for a tech rehearsal on September 6.
The deadline for submissions is June 1st. Groups that are accepted into the festival will be informed by June 5.
Please email your scripts to gayplayday@gmail.com
We look forward to receiving your submissions!
