Clark Theatre Announces 'The Emergence Project' Deadline

A chance for teen writers and directors to get into the act! The Emergence Project was conceived for Clark Youth Theatre by Julie Tattershall and George Romero as an undertaking to develop the artistic skills and talents of Tulsa area youth. By handing over the reigns of writing, directing, and other production aspects of The Emergence Project, we hope to see local artists flourish in a new way. Dates for the production are June 3rd through 5th at 7.30 PM, and June 6th at 2 pm.

Clark Theatre is currently seeking writers and directors between the ages of 12 and 18 for this production. Playwrights should submit a piece 10-20 minutes in length, which would require minimal sets, props and lighting. Directors are asked to submit an application stating their goals for the production, as well as any skills they think they could bring to the project. Up to six one-act plays and directors will be chosen for this production.

Advising on this project is George Romero, an experienced local director, actor, and arts educator currently serving as the President of the Heller Theatre Council. The deadline for submission is February 28th, 2010. Plays and Applications should be submitted via email to georgeious@gmail.com.
