[Call for plays] Anthology of Plays related to war and conflict zones / deadline: 1.12.2010. / University of Manchester

In Place of War invites submissions for an anthology of plays related to war and conflict zones from across the globe. Works should focus on responses to conflict, historical memory, displacement, experiences of refugees and asylum seekers, conflict resolution, peace, transitional justice and reconciliation.

The plays should be from the conflict zones themselves, by people living and working in those regions.

The plays will be considered by a panel of leading theatre practitioners, directors and academics for inclusion in an anthology of war plays to be published in 2011/12.

Plays will be accepted in any language, however, for those unavailable in English a short synopsis in English would be appreciated. We would like plays written in the last 20 years.

Please email your plays to the e-mail address below.

If you do not have an electronic copy, please post to the post address above.
