The Buck Creek Players Board of Directors seeks submissions from interested directors for their January-February 2012 slot in their 2011-2012 season. The production will not be bound by the rules of the Encore Association and will not be judged for the annual awards.

Running for six performances from Friday, January 27, through Sunday, February 5, 2012, proposals from interested directors should be postmarked no later than Wednesday, February 15, 2011, and include:
Contact information of submitting director
A script or summary of the proposed production
Information on cost of royalties and contact information on the licensing house (if known)
Theatrical resume
Preferred method of casting (i.e., open auditions, precasting, etc.)
Any other details to consider when producing the piece
The BCP Board of Directors will discuss and make a decision on or before Wednesday, April 6, 2011. It remains the discretion of the BCP Board of Directors whether a piece will be performed in the proposed time slot.

In order to provide the most guidance, please find the following information below on what submitted productions should entail:
A small cast (eight characters or less)
Limited set, or simple unit set
Free, cheap, or reasonably priced royalties
A production with energy, a positive message, and/or audience interaction
Cast members may be chosen by the director, through private audition, or through open auditions.
Production would need to be cast and begin rehearsals in December 2011 using The Playhouse lobby or another location as necessary.
A sponsor or sponsorship opportunities may underwrite all or some of the production cost
Production will only have four to five weeks available on stage from the time the holiday show closes to opening night. Both Christmas and New Year's fall into this time.
Please submit all proposals to:
