Theatre 29 is beginning the process of selecting plays, dramas and musicals for their 2016 season. If you are a director and would like to submit a show idea to the selection committee for consideration, reporter Rebecca Havely tells you how…
Theater 29 is accepting family-friendly show suggestions from local volunteer directors. To submit include: two show titles to allow for selection flexibility; a script; and an estimation of the show budget, royalties and script costs. If submitting for the first time, include a resume of your theatrical background. There are six tentative show slots; you may request a specific slot but you are not guaranteed it will be available. Show 1 is from January 15 to February 7; Show 2 from March 11 to April 9; the third slot is from May 6 to June 4. The summer youth program is from July 5 to August 6. Show 4 runs August 27 to September 24. The Halloween specialty production from October 14 to 31, and the final show of the season from November 25 to December 24. Shows rehearse for seven weeks with twelve performances over five consecutive weekends and include two matinees. To review the director’s responsibilities go to the director’s page at theatre29.org.
