THE DETAILS
7 Plays are chosen to compete over 2 nights. The competition will be judged by a panel of 5 audience members / guest judges with PLENTY of influence from the audience. The final night, we will compare the overall scores and declare a winner! OTP has chosen to work with this amazing model for our 6th time because SLAM Boston model promotes a strong focus on diversity, seeking plays and opportunities for artists of color, women & those from the LGTBQIA community. Now it's time to meet the teams!
