Announcing submissions for our 10th Annual
June Short Play & Musical Festival – NYC
June 11 – June 28, 2020
In person or online, the show must go on!
The 10th Annual SPF-NYC is upon us!
NYC is at the center of it all right now but unfortunately, this time it’s not in the
best of circumstances. However, New Yorkers remain
gritty, loyal, and apologetically themselves.
If that is not possible either, we will host a virtual reading of all 15 selected plays.
Regardless, ALL 15 plays selected for the festival will automatically earn
right first of refusal to participate in the June 2021 festival.
So really, you’ve got nothing else to lose, right? Just WRITE!
SUBMIT NOW!
