Submissions for SPF LUV 2025 are open!
Plays run one weekend out of three, Thurs – Sat 7pm, Sunday 3pm.
Feb 6 – 23, 2025
Plays must have a running time of 15 minutes or less (which roughly translates to 15 pages) to qualify for the weekly contest. Each week a winner – selected by audience vote – receives the honor of “Best of the Week” and $100 prize.
The shows are produced entirely by the playwright and their team, are non union, and are presented at the Steve & Marie Sgouros Black Box Theatre – located on the 3rd floor of the historic Players Theatre in the heart of Greenwich Village – NYC. There is one-time $50 tech fee for any play that is chosen and decides to participate. There is NO submission fee.
Please DO NOT submit plays that are for NYC or BOO. They will be rejected automatically–remember, this is for SPF LUV so we are looking for naughty, nice, sweet, poignant, funny, or thrilling!
Submissions close Nov 25.
*Please consider not setting your play in a therapist’s office on Valentine’s Day*
