CALL FOR NEW PLAYS
Michael Kanin Awards for Full-Length Plays
Playwrights are invited to submit plays with a running time that exceeds sixty minutes in the various categories of the Michael Kanin Playwriting Awards. Please note that you must meet the requirements of the awards you choose to enter and that you must enter your play in a specific Michael Kanin Award category. For a list of these awards, see the cover sheet (link below).
David Mark Cohen Award: Scripts are to be submitted only to the regional chair, Char Nelson (FULLREG8@GMAIL.COM) by NOVEMBER 1.
All other suitable Michael Kanin Awards: Scripts are to be submitted to the regional chair, Char Nelson (FULLREG8@GMAIL.COM) AND to the Kennedy Center National Office (GHENRY@KENNEDY-CENTER.ORG) by DECEMBER 1.
Each script that is submitted must be accompanied by a COVER SHEET. Please, read the cover sheet carefully; it contains important submisssion instructions.
In order to make the evaluation process as easy as possible for our readers, we ask that scripts follow uniform formatting practices. See SCRIPT FORMATTING for details.
Students that attend a school that had a KCACTF Associate or Participating entry, may enter 1-2 full-length plays in the Michael Kanin categories of their choice. A $10 script-handling fee is required for any script entered by a student from a school without an Associate or Participating entry between those dates.
Every effort will be made to handle submissions with care. However, neither KCACTF nor Region VIII will be responsible for misdirected or lost submissions. Within one week after you submit your script, you should receive an email confirmation stating that we have received it. If you do not receive confirmation, please contact Char Nelson (email address below). We will not begin accepting scripts until September 1. Please, do not submit before this date.
