Submissions for the 2012 Competition must be postmarked no later than December 13, 2011. There is no application form, or fee. See Submission Guidelines below for precise information regarding your entry.
Submission Guidelines
- Ensembles and/or soloists must have a completed show.
- Submissions must be original shows no shorter than 30 minutes and no longer than 60 minutes.
- Adrian’s Project is for emerging, professional artists. We believe if you’ve had the training and a handful of professional experiences, you qualify. We believe if you’ve been doing your thing quite successfully for 5 plus years, you do not qualify.
- Please include a concise, but detailed letter that tells us about you, your show, your experiences as an emerging, professional artist(s), and why you or your ensemble would be the right match for our award.
- Please include a CV. If you’re an ensemble, please, submit CV’s for everyone in the group.
- Please include a 10 minute video of your show that displays its highlights. Please have this video display your show in a linear fashion, showcasing the aforementioned highlights from beginning, middle, to end.
- We accept submissions electronically, as well as through the mail. Submissions must be postmarked no later than December 13, 2011.
