Shakespeare Saturdays Shorts

Saturday, April 21. 1:00 PM.

New York Public Library, Inwood Branch


Admission is Free!


Shakespeare Saturdays is excited to launch Shakespeare Saturdays Shorts where writers can present readings of their short plays that reflect their inspiration from The Bard's works. Audiences may see new works that incorporate Elizabethan language ... or perhaps they'll see a favorite Shakespeare character in an entirely new plot ... a prequel or sequel could be written to a Shakespeare classic - the sky's the limit.


Writers are welcome to submit PDF's of short plays to Donna Stearns, Executive Producer at donna@moonbeam.net with the subject line: Shakespeare Saturdays Shorts. Submissions can be anywhere from 5-25 minutes in length. In your email, please provide a description of how Shakespeare inspired your new play. Please include your resume and a Production History (if that applies). Playwrights will provide their own cast. Minimal props and minimal costuming is allowed, but no staging or blocking. The readings will be simple, seated or a stand and deliver approach. Tech Rehearsal TBA. More details TBA. Admission is free (so there is no pay).
