Do you have any specific people for your crew? (i.e., stage manager, assistant director, choreographer, etc. We can always help you find people if you need them!)




Are the rights available? Where? For how much?



Please outline a rough rehearsal schedule: (i.e., what you want to do when. Decide when you want to do blocking, music, and choreography of each part of the show. Obviously this is subject to change and exact times/dates are not necessary. But at least provide us with what you’d like to do each week of rehearsal. For straight plays, assume 6 weeks of rehearsal; for musicals, assume 8 weeks. Feel free to include off-book dates, when you’d like to start full runs of the show, etc. The more details, the better!)













Anything else you’d like to add?






If you are proposing a play, please make a copy of your script available for Sam Dercher, the Artistic Director. Either E-mail it to her with this proposal, or give her a copy in person by the time proposals are due. If you are proposing a musical, please send or give her a copy of the soundtrack to the show by the time proposals are due. Remember to please send this proposal to Sam Dercher at sdercher@gmail.com (not the FPP account)! Send it no later than Sunday, November 16th by 11:59pm. Late proposals will not be accepted.
