How to submit a script

To apply for script services, please send the following information:

• PLAY SUBMISSION INFORMATION SHEET

• Submit a hard copy of your play to:

                  SPC, Box 3092, Saskatoon, SK S7K 3S9

• Also, submit a digital copy of your play to sk.playwrights@sasktel.net

• The typed copy of your script must be one side only on standard 8.5"x11" bond paper, preferably 12pt font.  All plays must be submitted in Standard Play Format. Plays that are incorrectly formatted may be returned to the playwright for reformatting.

              We accept plays formatted in either of the following styles:

                 Standard American Format or SPC Play Format

                  (click on the STYLE to see an example)

• Include a cover letter explaining what service you are requesting and how you think the script will be developed by receiving that service.

• All scripts are assessed by the Dramaturgical Committee. If you are unsure what your script needs, you can leave that to the discretion of the Dramaturgical Committee. Just indicate in your cover letter that you would like the committee to recommend which SPC service, if any, would best serve the submitted script.

The office of the Saskatchewan Playwrights Centre is located on the 7th floor of the Delta Bessborough Hotel on Spadina Crescent in downtown Saskatoon, SK.
