ABOUT THE 20/20 NEW PLAY COMMISSION PROGRAM
In September 2007, in conjunction with the launch of its 20th Anniversary Season, InterAct Theatre Company announced that it was creating the 20/20 New Play Commission program, an ambitious initiative that would award twenty new play commissions over the next six seasons. InterAct seeks to use the plays written through the awarded commissions to explore the issues our society faces over the next twenty years through the eyes of the playwright.
Through the 20/20 New Play Commission program, two types of awards will be given:
- Development Awards, which may be given to works already in progress, and put toward further development with InterAct’s assistance. Plays receiving Development Awards cannot have had a professional production. Development Awards will be $2,500.
- New Play Commissions, in which a new, previously (or substantially) unwritten play is commissioned and aided in the development process by InterAct. New Play Commissions will range from $5,000 - $10,000.
