Annual Opportunities
May 15th to July 15th: Breaking Cover Submission Window
Breaking Cover is a play development series that provides Albertan Playwrights with valuable tools to test their newest work.
Our six-week development process provides a director, cast, mini rehearsal process, and dramaturgical support to your manuscript. It culminates with a public reading in the beautiful Snell Auditorium at the Red Deer Public Library. The reading is followed by a moderated question-and-answer period with your audience, so that you leave with new insight into your play from the inside out.
Submissions are accepted May 15th - July 15th of each year.
Submissions are currently closed for the 2025 - 2026 season and will reopen in May of 2026.
January 15th - March 15th: Theatre Artist Residency Application Window
Pending the success of the pilot program, the residency may continue to future years.
Submissions for the 2026 - 2027 residency would open in January of 2026.
