Bad Musicals Festival 2008 Now Accepting Submissions
NY Artists Unlimited, creator of the International Cringe Festival, is now accepting submissions for the BAD MUSICALS FESTIVAL 2008 (really GOOD plays that are: naughty, satirical, politically incorrect, political satire, shocking, or just plain frowned upon by polite society).
Bottom line is they must keep us laughing or entertained throughout. Can be a play with music, full-fledged musical, or any combination thereof; 5 to 45 minutes max (shorter is better). This festival offers nurturing, publicity, exposure.
Quality of production monitored by artistic director; professional directors participate. Submissions read aloud 2-3 times by professional actors; decisions made by artistic director, directors, co-producers, and actors.
Please send application form, submission fee of $20 payable to NY Artists Unlimited (NOTE: no fee for Dramatists Guild members), resume(s) of playwright/ composer/ lyricist, cover letter, 5 copies (or as needed) of script, sheet music (where appropriate), and CDs/tapes of music to:
