Description:
The Miranda Family ‘Voces Latinx’ National Playwriting Competition This new playwriting initiative continues the ideals of our original competition, to develop and promote Latinx plays and playwrights. By doing so we are championing a distinctively American narrative that is slowly gaining traction with “mainstream” theatres across the country but still lagging woefully behind.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: The Van Lier Young Director’s Fellowship is currently not being offered in 2020. Please stay tuned for other opportunities for Latinx Directors as we hope to have new programming for emerging directors soon. This fellowship is designed to give emerging Hispanic / Latinx directors an opportunity to develop their craft by mounting two professional theater productions at Repertorio Español. This Fellowship is sponsored by The New York Community Trust.
REQUIREMENTS
*PLEASE READ CAREFULLY* Plays that do not meet these requirements will not be considered.
- Subject matter and characters must resonate with Latinx audiences and accurately depict the Latinx/Hispanic experience.
- Original and un-produced.
- Full length plays. (At least- 1 hour and 15 minutes)
- Written in either Spanish or English.
- Plays that have had readings or a workshop production are acceptable.
- No screenplays, one-act plays, adaptations or translations will be accepted.
