Call for Play Submissions- Sylvan Lake Theatre Trail 2025
IMPORTANT DATES

Plays are to be 15-minutes maximum. (That’s 7-8 pages following the provided script format). Theatre Trail plays are site-specific theatre experiences. The chosen location, a Sylvan Lake shop or business, is the setting and impacts the events of the play to create a unique experience for the audience. Playwrights are encouraged to include Sylvan Lake themes, environment or history (fact or fiction!) if it works for the play.
Ultimately, a well-crafted play is the most important factor.
