Submissions are being accepted through June 30, 2024 for our 2025 Season.
ORIGINS is a safe, creative, and collaborative environment for writers, directors, and composers to hear their work out loud and see their work reach its full potential.
Each season, four new, undiscovered works will be invited to participate in a 29-hour staged reading series in the Coachella Valley, fully funded and produced by CVRep. One of these four projects will be selected to be produced the following theatrical season on our Main Stage. It is a true ‘page to stage’ program that is committed to seeing the full development of the next Broadway Show.
GUIDELINES
- CVRep is in pursuit of thought-provoking, innovative theater of substance and storytelling which highlights the diverse voices and experiences of the American culture.
- CVRep is open to any original, unpublished and unproduced FULL-LENGTH play or musical which is in line with our artistic vision and mission. The goal of the program is to help writers develop unfinished work in a collaborative environment.
- We are unable to consider plays and musicals which require more than 15 cast members.
Please be prepared to submit a synopsis and bio in addition to:
- 20 page sample of your script in PDF form (title page/cast breakdown do not count toward page count)
- Up to three demo tracks (if your project is a musical)
If we would like to request a full copy of your script we will contact you within 6-8 weeks. Due to the volume of submissions we receive, we are only able to respond to work that is in line with our artistic vision and goals.
We appreciate your patience as we give each submission ample time and careful consideration.
