NOW ACCEPTING PROPOSALS

Geneva Theatre Guild is now accepting

2025-2026 production proposals

from Directors for its 48th Season!

​

The deadline for all submissions is June 11, 2025.

​

To submit a proposal, download and fill out the Proposal Form HERE.

Completed proposals can be sent to the

contact information located on the first page

of the Proposal Form.

​

Directors should include: 

• a resume

• a one-page budget (a sample template is included in the Proposal Form - the Board of Directors reserves the right to change and finalize the budget based on affordability)

• a copy of the script, or a detailed synopsis of the show if the script is not available 

• a statement describing the artistic vision for the production 

• a list of any special creative technical/set elements that may be required

• a list of staff members who already have agreed to work on the production if it is selected (the Board of Directors can assist in finding production staff, if necessary)

 

Proposed productions for the AUTUMN and WINTER of 2025/2026 (September to March) must meet the following criteria:

- A small play with a cast of no more than six to ten (6 to 10) actors. We encourage but do not require something seasonal, like a mystery or classic monster story in the autumn, or holiday fun for the family in the winter.

- The play should be one that will appeal to both actors and audiences. The proposal should make note of how/why the show will be received by the Geneva and greater Finger Lakes communities in their vision statement.

- We will accept proposals from Directors for new original work (Geneva Theatre Guild will NOT review submitted scripts from writers without an assigned director).

- Low technical/set requirements.

​

Proposed productions for the SUMMER of 2026 (July-August) must meet the following criteria:

- Must be a popular musical that will appeal to a variety of actors and audiences. The proposal should make note of how/why the show will be received by the Geneva and greater Finger Lakes communities in their vision statement.

- The total cast should be around twenty (20) actors and should not require a large stage crew or pit band (i.e. 10 or fewer musicians would be ideal).

​

Geneva Theatre Guild encourages submissions that

embrace actors and production team members of all ages, races, ethnicities, abilities, genders, orientations, and identities.
