July 1, 2012 (All day)

Plays can be about professional, student, or amateur sports or athletes, on or off the field. They can be about family members of athletes. They can be about coaches. Plays do not have to be biographical or autobiographical. Use your imagination! Native Voices will be posting interesting stories on Facebook and Pinterest about Native athletes, athletics, families of athletes, coaches, and other supporters.

In honor of the 100th Anniversary of Jim Thorpe's Olympic achievements, as well as the upcoming 2012 Olympic Games, Native Voices is announcing a call for scripts for our 2nd Annual Short Play Festival presenting the theme Indians in America: Native American Athletes Take the Field. Selected short plays and one-acts will be presented during the Autry’s American Indian Arts Marketplace in Los Angeles, as well as be eligible to compete for the 2012 Excellence in Playwriting award, a $1000 cash prize!

    * Short plays and one-acts must be 5-page min, 16-page max
    * Entries are due by July 31, 2012
    * Plays will be selected on the creative use of the theme, originality, theatricality, and execution.
    * For more information please visit our website or email NVliteraryassociate@gmail.com
