CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS
Deadline: Wednesday, August 21st, 2019 @ Midnight
PIECE OF MINE is seeking submissions for the Inaugural Black Women in Theatre showcase taking place February 7 & 8, 2020. For three consecutive years we have curated the incredibly moving Black Men in Theatre and now switching gears. Submissions can be from 10 to 90 minutes in length.
Selected participants receive support in the form of a venue, marketing/promotion, and mentorship to workshop their pieces for future development/production.
Our brilliant alumni include Amanda Parris (Other Side of the Game), Sabrina Moella (Made in Congo), Motion (Oraltorio), and Meghan Swaby (Venus’ Daughter).
All art mediums are encouraged although theatre/performance art is prioritized.
