Submitting the play- round two

Sarah,

Thanks for your patience. I did about seven on-line submissions yesterday, thinking that I'd start with those first. I am still mulling over the ending and haven't written a synopsis as of yet. I really want to work in a cooperative setting with actors where the play could earn its molding and accents. I've been told by someone that has not read the play that I've written a play about a child molester. Should I decide I need to do a synopsis and submit it formally like so many theater companies seem to want, I may resubmit it to you. At this point it feels like a self-fulfilling prophecy-  I know what your readers reaction will be to the synopsis, so why bother?

The characters need to speak to the audience or the readers, no?

Thanks again

Dan McNay

Hi Dan,

I am sorry, but because we receive so many submissions each week, we request
that the submission package include those 3 items. We do not dismiss
anything because of a synopsis, rather, it helps our readers have an
understanding of the play since they are only reading 20 pages.
