WHAT ARE WE LOOKING FOR?

We are looking for UNSOLICITED scripts. Please do not submit scripts that have already received a professional production (i.e. been performed for more than a week’s run in a professional venue, for a paying audience). Plays that have undergone R&D or an amateur production shorter than a week still qualify.
We are looking for full-length plays (i.e. 40 pages minimum, 30 pages minimum for a monologue).
We are looking to read plays, radio plays or musicals. Please do not send us screenplays, novels, adaptations, or poetry collections.
We are only looking to read one submission per writer. If you have several in the pipe-line, send us the one you think we’ll like the most!
Similarly, we are unable to read redrafts of plays we have already responded to.
Your play must be a horror play and fit with characteristics of the genre.

HOW TO SUBMIT

All scripts should be sent through to contact@dansemacabreproductions.co.uk
We only accept scripts as a PDF or Word document.
Please include your FULL NAME and the PLAY’S TITLE in the file name.
In your email, please include a short paragraph about yourself and a brief indication of how long you have been working on the script e.g. Is this a first draft? A final draft ready for production? Etc.
The service is completely free! There is no charge when you submit your script.

When you submit your play, you will receive an email (within a two-day window) acknowledging our receipt of your script.
All submitted scripts that meet our criteria will be read by our readers.
Two readers will read your script individually and each construct feedback independently to one another. This enables us to offer two completely different assessments of your work!
You will then receive an email with both pieces of feedback within four weeks.
