We will be accepting submissions from playwrights for the upcoming year of public readings as part of the Greenhouse Project.  Please see the guidelines below. The Greenhouse Project provides an opportunity for playwrights with ties to Minnesota to have their scripts evaluated for possible inclusion in our Public Reading Series.  Scripts with particular promise might be chosen for a Development Workshop and potentially a full scale production by Workhouse Theatre Company. Submission Guidelines Submissions will be accepted from September 15 through December 15, 2015 • Seeking scripts that are smart, ballsy and fundamentally entertaining • No restrictions on subject matter and all genres considered (though, at this time, we are unfortunately unable to consider musicals.) • Plays must be at least 75 minutes in length • Plays must have a cast size of 10 or less • Playwright must have ties to the state of Minnesota - this means that writer is either living and working in Minnesota, or they used to (and still have friends or family living in the area) • Preference for plays not produced in Minnesota within the last 5 years Only electronic submissions will be accepted.  Please submit only the FIRST 25 pages of your script. More than one script will be accepted, but each one must be submitted separately. All submissions (first 25 pages) will be read and reviewed by five readers, and if the submission produces sufficient interest, a copy of the full script will be requested.
