Terms and conditions:
· There is no submission fee, prize or payment for Gi60 participation.
· Gi60 is staffed and created by professionals who are volunteers and give their time free of charge.
· Copyright remains with the author.
· Plays lasting longer than 60 seconds may not be considered.
· The organizers may use individual plays to promote the Gi60 festival.
· Final play selection will be announced on the Gi60 Website and Facebook Groups.
· Gi60 is staffed and created by professionals who are volunteers, and give their time free of charge.
·
The organisers reserve the right to cut scripts without notification
where necessary. E.g. if a play is running significantly longer than 60
seconds, we may delete some small lines if their intention is
communicated elsewhere in the script.
· Gi60 festivals are recorded and made available for viewing on the Gi60 YouTube Channel. To view past plays: Gi60 Channel YouTube
PLEASE NOTE:
due to the high volume of plays we receive each year we are unable to
write to individual playwrights to notify them if their play has not
been selected.
**We
receive between 700-900 submissions each year; by including the text of
the play in the body of the email, it saves play readers time to not
have to open attachments. If your play is selected, the attachments in
Word/RTF make it easier for us to then share those scripts with the
creative teams.
