DESCRIPTION:
The Staged Reading Series provides the
writer an opportunity to have a submitted feature or television
script performed by actors through a table read and/or rehearsed
on a theatre stage. Having a script interpreted by other
artists and hearing it with other voices is an invaluable tool
to a project's creative evaluation.
BENEFITS:
All eligible entries will be accepted in the series.
This is not a competition, and there is no elimination process.
The series' objective is to help writers improve their craft through
feedback from the performance of their work and interpretation
of its dialogue and storyline in an artisitic environment.
ELIGIBILITY:
The Staged Reading Series is open
to both Scriptwriters Network (SWN) members and non-members who
are 18-years of age or older. Scripts that have received at least
one "Recommend" or "Consider" from HOP
or CSMTOP, or placed as a semi-finalist
or higher in the High
Concept Screenplay Competition are automatically eligible.
Scripts are also eligible if they have gone through one of our
Writers Groups and been recommended
by the moderator. Eligibility for all other scripts will be determined
at the sole discretion of the Staged Reading Series
coordinator. Only submissions in English will be eligible for
the series.
ENTRY FEES:
$90
