Your VetRep Review

VetRep’s reading of Central Park West by Woody Allen, is fast approaching and tickets are already selling out. We will be opening each performance with a reading of Fifteen Dead Souls by Leilani Squire. Fifteen Dead Souls is the winner of our inaugural 10-minute play competition and will be the first to be performed at the parlor.

There’s still time to submit your work! Our semi-annual playwrighting competition comes to a close in just five weeks. Submit your 10-minute plays by midnight on July 3rd to be considered in this competition.

Playwrights must be - Current or former: US military, law enforcement, fire service, EMS, foreign service, intelligence service, DoD employee, DoD Contractor; or an immediate family member of the service member.

Plays can be any genre and any subject matter. Playwrights may submit more than one play. Plays should not have been previously produced and/or published. Winners and finalists will be notified via email no later than December 31, 2023 (note: we will make every effort to have results back to submitters ASAP, however, in order to ensure fair treatment of each submission and to plan for any contingencies which may arise, we are providing a worst-case scenario for our timeline). There is no participation or submission fee. There is no guarantee that winners’ or finalists’ work will be produced by VetRep. The 10-minute play winner will receive a $1,000 grant, second place will receive $750, and third place will receive $500.
