Brimmer Street Theatre Company's seventh annual Blueprint Series is now accepting submissions, with a deadline of August 24 to submit applications. The Blueprint Series provides opportunities for playwrights to work with the BSTC ensemble, in collaboration with other artists, to develop new plays.
The BSTC Blueprint Series focuses on developing work from the ground up (completed scripts are not eligible for this program). Projects will be selected by the BSTC ensemble based on the concept of a play, including genre, plot, cast, along with other elements. Duration of the development process is ten weeks, at the conclusion of which the company may offer further studio development, a public reading, or even a full production of a play that has been built during the process.
Past Blueprint Series projects have included Pack up the Moon by Christina Cigala (produced by BSTC in 2013), All Your Hard Work by Miles Brandman (produced by BSTC in 2012), 1969 by Damon Chua (produced by GatChu Productions and Rogue Machine Theatre in 2012), Leiris/Picasso by David Jette (produced by BSTC in 2010), and more.
Brimmer Street Theatre Company is a non-profit ensemble theatre that creates and produces new works of theatre in order to cultivate artists and engage audiences in Los Angeles. By working from a select core of talented artists, BSTC aims to produce a unique brand of American theatre that is rooted in a common experience and driven by their commitment to building better theatre that is challenging, extraordinary, and inspiring.
