Accepting Directors’ Submittals
2010-2011 Main Stage Season
Beowulf Alley Theatre

Beowulf Alley Theatre Company, 11 South 6th Ave., is seeking directors and play proposals for the 2010- 2011 season. Complete instructions and applications are available online at www.beowulfalley.org, “Cast & Crew,” “Directors & Playwrights,” “Directors.”

Submissions are due by 3 p.m. Wednesday, October 14, 2009 and may be submitted online, via mail or delivered in person. Supporting materials including a copy of the proposed script, one copy of the libretto for musicals and one copy of the musical recording are also required. For online applicants, supporting materials must be received by 3 p.m., Friday, October 16, 2009 to qualify for consideration.

Throughout each year, guided by its Artistic Development Committee, Beowulf Alley Theatre will offer a selection of thought-provoking plays to Tucsonans and visitors to Tucson. Writers who cover the Tucson arts scene say the Theatre provides its audiences with “the best total package”—plays, performances, and productions that are high in artistic and technical quality.

A non-profit arts organization, Beowulf Alley was founded based on dialogues with local actors who wanted a permanent home for theatre artists from the Tucson community. Today, its intimate 95-seat theatre provides a facility that meets professional standards where performing artists, educators, and technicians can develop and present their skills. Because Beowulf Alley engages a talent pool that calls Tucson “home” for its productions, the Theatre is committed to helping grow a new generation of Tucson talent with its education programs for young people. And true to its roots, the Theatre maintains ongoing dialogues with the community, including Dialogues with theatre-goers after the first Sunday matinee performance of each of its season plays – an opportunity for theatre-goers to discuss the plays with the director and the performing artists.
