Thespis Theater Festival Information

Thespis Theater Festival / Competition is organized to help bring never-before seen work of playwrights, directors and actors to the stage in a way that may lead to future performances. The Festival presents an opportunity to stage first-run plays for audiences with the chance to win prizes for Best Play and Best Actor. The Festival will be presented in the Cabrini Repertory Theater in Manhattan. For those playwrights who want to incorporate live music into their play, Cabrini Rep offers a fully-tuned baby grand piano. We also offer a choice of stage furniture and props to all productions, as well as a large projection wall at the back of the stage and a quality projector that will create a wide range of possibilities for your set. In this way, productions need not be as concerned about moving their props in and out of the theater before and after each performance.
