How To Submit
Submissions are welcome from all current Magnet students, performers, and community members who have taken at least 1 Magnet Level One class in any program.
If you’re selected for this month’s show, you and your team get to promote and showcase your work on the Magnet Theater stage.
- Scripted/sketches: your submission must be written and ready to perform at the time of submission;
- Improv duo/trio or team, or musical team: your submission should include a description of your team and form, and at least one short clip of your team performing in front of an audience
- Comedy short or music video: please submit a first cut; you can showcase the edited version at the show
- Characters and Storytelling: make sure these are scripted or have a detailed outline when you submit with your video clip
- Music performance: please submit a recording or video of the work you want to perform at the show
We welcome work in development, but we ask that any scripted submissions have, at minimum, a completed working draft - at this time, we’re not accepting ideas/pitches for this show.
