Frequent questions
Before you writeUsually within a few days. If a production is in rehearsal or on tour it can take a week or two, so say in your first line if a decision is waiting on the answer.
Yes. A reading copy is twenty five dollars as a PDF or a hard copy, and educators considering a course adoption can ask for a review copy instead.
Always. Monologue requests, questions about a character, and dissertation enquiries are welcome, and a student from a small programme is answered as carefully as a producing theatre.
Often, yes, in person or by video. Talkbacks, rehearsal room visits, class sessions and residencies are all possible. Write to the direct address with your dates and the shape of the session.
Ask first and say where it will appear. Production photographs belong to the photographers who took them, and permission is passed on rather than granted here.
Everything begins by email, so that dates, titles and terms are written down. A call or a video meeting is gladly arranged once there is something to talk through.
Star the plays as you read
Every play on the site carries a star. Press it and the play joins your shortlist, which follows you from page to page, so you can request them all in one message instead of writing about each title separately.
The company
Where the work is madeArizona Theatre Matters, Phoenix, Arizona. Jeanmarie has been its Founding Artistic Director since 2012, making live and digital performance that amplifies underrepresented voices.
The plays are published in print by Upstage Left Press, which also handles performance rights for every title in the catalogue.
New plays, new productions, twice a year
A short letter when a play is finished, when a production opens, or when new classroom material becomes available. Nothing else.
