2026 "Scratch off" Original Work Showcase- OPEN SUBMISSIONS

SCRATCH OFF 26

Originally launched in Los Angeles, last season’s turnout was so successful that meraki theatre decided to not only bring the show back to LA, but also expand to the East Coast and kick off Scratch Off in NYC!

Scratch Off is a space where creatives can showcase their work on stage. Whether that be through a scene, a monologue, movement, clowning... whatever you can think of, at whatever stage of the creative process the piece is at, you can perform. As long as it's not over 10 pages and you can provide your own cast, director, props, costumes, etc., we'll provide a stage, an audience, and basic tech.

If your piece is chosen, a message will be sent to the email address you've provided, confirming your slot. You can submit multiple pieces if you'd like!

There will be a one-time $50 fee to cover venue costs for those selected.
