Playwrights, please note this very important deadline.
The Kennedy Center/American College Theatre Festival offers three categories of awards to playwrights, including ten minute plays, one acts and full lengths. Winning plays have the opportunity to be presented at the regional or national festivals. For more information, please go to our regions website at http://www.kcactf3.org/playwrights.htm
As some of you know I have been selected to serve as the vice-chairperson of the Kennedy Center's American College Theatre Festival's New Play Program (KC/ACTF) for Region Three (Michigan, Illinois, Wisconsin, and Indiana). KC/ACTF is a national theater program involving 18,000 students from colleges and universities nationwide which has served as a catalyst in improving the quality of college theater in the United States. The KCACTF has grown into a network of more than 600 academic institutions throughout the country, where theater departments and student artists showcase their work and receive outside assessment by KCACTF respondents.
The KC/ACTF New Play Program provides an opportunity for undergraduate and graduate playwrights to present their work in readings, workshops and full productions at their universities or in regional and national festivals.
As vice-chair, I travel the region responding to new student plays, contribute to the organization and content of the regional festival (this year in Saginaw Michigan), and mentor student playwrights.
I am really hoping that we will have a much more active participation in all the KC/ACTF really fine new play programs, and that begins with you submitting your excellent work.
