The competition returns as part of the ninth annual “Title Wave: The 2023 New Works Festival,” scheduled to take place May 5 through May 7 at Bay Street Theater.
Submissions open Thursday, March 9, and must be original work written by the applicant, and can take the form of poetry, spoken word, rap, monologue, song, or short scene.
