Call for Plays Deadline: 4/30

THREE WISE MONKEYS THEATRE COMPANY: SHORT LEAPS (CA)
Deadline: 4-30-09
Material: Short Plays (less than 15min’s), by San Francisco Bay Area Writers
Three Wise Monkeys Theatre Company (3WM) is a 501(C)3 company started in 2001 by Dawson Moore, Richard Bernier and Aoise Stratford. We are dedicated to supporting, promoting and producing the best work by San Francisco Bay Area writers of all demographics, with an emphasis on youth, language, and theatricality. We are interested in plays written for the stage that concern themselves with issues involving the current generation and demonstrate a unique use of language and poetry. Although we aim to promote new work, this does not always have to mean new writing and we are keen to see new and unique adaptations and translations of older works. Whatever the project, however, at 3WM we want to facilitate the production and recognition of great new theatre in the Bay Area, and part of that process means fostering a collaborative and creative environment in which both new, young voices and more experienced theatre artists can thrive.
