play submission guidelines
At this time we are not accepting new submissions.
general policy
We do not accept unsolicited manuscripts; we only accept submissions from literary agents. If you do not have an agent, you can email us a letter of introduction with a synopsis of the play, the first ten pages of the script and a character list with specifics about age, gender and ethnicity. If the material interests us, we will contact you with a request for the complete script. Electronic submissions are strongly preferred.
Although we generally accept plays throughout the year, we are able to do the majority of our reading between September and December. Most playwrights are notified of the status of their submissions within six to nine months of receipt.
Thank you for your interest in The Oregon Shakespeare Festival.
