Winston-Salem Writers’ 2025 10-Minute Play Festival contest is accepting submissions until April 15. Judging will be conducted in early May and six plays will be selected for production. Auditions will follow soon after judging is complete.  

We continue our collaboration with 40+ Stage Company to produce the selected plays and performances will be held June 6-8 at the Intergenerational Center for Arts and Wellness, 114 30th St., behind Senior Services.  

The contest is open to North Carolina residents of any age group and out-of-state students attending schools in North Carolina. The play should be an original unpublished work, and may not have been previously performed in any public venue for a paying audience. Entry fees for submissions are free for WSW members and $10 for non-members. All submissions should be mailed to david@wswriters.org. For guidelines and submission details, please visit www.wswriters.org/10–minute-play.
