Play Submissions

Asolo Repertory Theatre produces many World Premieres as well as second and third productions, and does accept unsolicited manuscripts. If you would like to submit a play to Asolo Rep for consideration, please review our submission guidelines, as established in 2007:

•    Due to the large number of submissions we receive, the review process may take two to three months. Other than an initial response that we have received your materials, you will not be contacted before the review process is complete.
•    The best times to submit materials and/or submission inquiries are July through November in order to be considered for the following season. (i.e. July – November 2010 submissions will be considered for the 2011-2012 season).
•    We strongly prefer receiving submissions electronically. Please email the Literary Office at: playsubmissions@asolo.org. However, we will accept submissions by regular mail. Hard copies may be mailed to:

Literary Office
Asolo Repertory Theatre
5555 North Tamiami Trail
Sarasota, FL 34243

•    If you are sending your materials by regular mail and would like them returned, please send a self addressed stamped envelope.
•    Please do not call the Producing Artistic Director, Michael Donald Edwards.
•    In addition to the script or script sample, your submission should include a query letter, your contact information, brief synopsis, character breakdown, and any relevant production history.
•    If sending a musical work, mp3 files of songs are preferred, but demo CDs are accepted.
•    Any further questions should also be directed to the Literary Office at: playsubmissions@asolo.org
