The 31st Annual Mid-America Theatre Conference

Cleveland Hyatt Regency-Arcade
March 4-7, 2010
Playwriting Symposium
Going Public

The Playwriting Symposium of the Mid-America Theatre Conference seeks playwrights, directors, actors, and dramaturgs to participate in our Mid-America Dramatists Lab, which produces a series of staged readings of new ten-minute plays. Taking our lead from the conference-wide theme of “Getting Known: Public Theatre and Theatre Publics,” the plays may speak directly or indirectly, thematically or stylistically, to the shifting notions of “Public Theatre” (our theatre public, public vs. private, theatre in public, and a wide variety of other constructions). Although we encourage playwrights to consider the all-conference theme as food for thought, unrelated submissions will certainly be considered. Plays accepted into the MATC conference will receive a staged reading during the conference with the collaboration of a director, a dramaturg, and a cast of actors. Audiences are comprised of MATC participants from the Playwrights Symposium and from the other symposia of the conference. For more information regarding the submission of ten-minute plays and information on sending resumes in order to participate as an actor, director or dramaturg, please click on the links below:
