- Please include a postcard, stamped and addressed to yourself, which our Literary Department will return as the receipt of your materials. Also, please include a self-addressed and stamped envelope (SASE) in which your materials can eventually be returned.Neither one-acts, nor musicals will be eligible.
- Casts should be limited to 10 actors maximum, regardless of the number of parts they might play.
- Settings should be limited to one naturalistic set or a theatrical setting which can represent any number of locations.
- Only one submission per calendar year is allowed.
- Submissions for Hyperion II will be accepted only from February 1 through April 30, 2008 and must be postmarked accordingly.
- Response time for scripts under consideration can vary between two and six months, after receipt. Please be assured that the Literary Department will do its best to respond in a timely manner. The play chosen for a 2009 production will be announced in December 2008 and every entrant will have received a response by that date.
- If a full script should ultimately be requested by the PacRep Literary Department, we will contact the author directly. Please do not submit any unsolicited full-length scripts to PacRep. They will not be read. If you have included a SASE, they will be returned; if not, they will be recycled.
