Submitting to The Global Age Project

Please read the following important points before submitting.

CONTENT GUIDELINES

Writers are encouraged to submit works that explore the current and future state of the global community and/or examine the changing state of human relationships in this new, modern century. Works can be provocative, gentle, fierce or transformational, anything that addresses an evolving understanding of the world in all its complexities.

You may submit a play on any topic, but you should understand that preference will be given to those works that specifically address the themes of the contest as stated above.

TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS

We're excited to offer online script submission for the GAP. This process is faster, saves postage and paper costs, and streamlines the administration of the project. In a festival dedicated to the future, it seems silly to do it any other way.

We can accept your play in a variety of formats: Microsoft Word (.DOC), Rich Text (.RTF), Adobe Acrobat (.PDF) and plain text (.TXT). We cannot accept scripts in native Final Draft Software format - please export to RTF if you are using Final Draft. Whatever you use to write your plays, as long as it isn't a pen or a typewriter you should be able to save it in one of these formats. If it is a pen or a typewriter...well, maybe this isn't the contest for you.

If you aren't comfortable submitting your script in electronic format (we promise we won't produce it without telling you), you can mail a hard copy and a check for $20 to:

Attn: GAP
Aurora Theatre Company
2081 Addison St.
Berkeley, CA 94704

NEW THIS YEAR: APPLICATION FEE

There is a $20 submission fee, put toward the costs associated with the selection process. Previous festival participants and honorable mentions are exempt from the submission fee. If the submission fee poses a severe financial hardship, please email the contest to discuss.
