Screenplay Competition
Friday, September 15 | 7:00PM – 9:30PM | $15 Online / $20 at the Door
Miracle Theater, 535 8th Street, SE (Eastern Market)
The DC Shorts Screenplay Competition is a very different kind of screenwriting competition. A panel of judges consisting of filmmakers, screenwriters and critics reviewed over 145 screenplays — and selected the top 6 to be performed for you! After a table reading, the audience will vote for their favorite, and one lucky writer will walk away with $2,000 to shoot their project! The completed film will screen at DC Shorts 2018.
