Playmarket Announces Live Screenplay Competition; Seeks Best Unfilmed Screenplay
The Live Screenplay Competition is a Play Press/Playmarket partnership to find the Best Unfilmed Screenplay. The winner will be given a professional public rehearsed reading in a theatre venue in Wellington, followed by time with a script advisor to help you with your new draft and, if needed, professional advice.
While the primary aim is to encourage screenwriters and to present your screenplay as faithfully as possible, there is also a secret agenda - to introduce a new audience to the potential of the stage as a way to share ideas - and to discover new theatre writing talent.
This year's winner was FUN RIDE, by Benedict Reid, which will be having a reading in Circa 2 in late 2009.
The deadline for submissions is January 31st 2010.
Send all queries to Jean at stuff@playpress.co.nz, (www.playpress.co.nz) or scripts@playmarket.org.nz.
