We’re proud to announce a new monthly playwriting contest in collaboration with Bamboo Ridge Press.
Every month, Kumu Kahua’s artistic director Harry Wong III will select a writing prompt on the first day of that
month. We’re looking for 5-page monologues or 10-page scenes based on that prompt; the due date for
submissions are always the last day of the month. All entries must be written in traditional play format; in‐
structions on this format can be found here (https://www.dramatistsguild.com/script-formats) (https://www.‐
dramatistsguild.com/script-formats (https://www.dramatistsguild.com/script-formats)), courtesy of the
Dramatists Guild.
There will be one winner each month. Scripts will be submitted to the judges anonymously. Winners will re‐
ceive $100 and a subscription to Bamboo Ridge Press. Woo!
The prompt for the month of March 2023 is: Something a little different. Write an extended stage direc‐
tion, no more than 8 pages, that you consider impossible to execute on stage. For example, Ibsen's
play, When We Dead Awaken, ends with an avalanche carrying two characters to their death.
Best of luck
