  Full submissions LAY SUBMISSIONS Theatre Ariel is always seeking the next great Jewish play to present to our audiences. Anyone may submit through the process outlined below. Theatre Ariel is looking for plays that engage with the rich world of Jewish life, thought and practice; plays where Judaism, Jewish identity or Jewish perspectives are significant or driving factors in the story (In other words, not plays where the characters ‘happen’ to be Jewish or that have a few yiddishisms or “Jewish jokes” in them, but plays where Jewish life/thought/history is integral or particularly relevant to the story.). Theatre Ariel seeks plays with casts of five actors or less. You do not have to be Jewish to have your work considered by Theatre Ariel.  All our performances are presented as salon-style theatre readings in people’s homes, following a long tradition of Jewish theatre. For the foreseeable future, we will be presenting in a hybrid model of both in-person and virtual performances.  To

  Full details  Essay Submissions - OPEN Interstellar Flight Magazine is seeking essays on pop culture, movies, geekery, and scifi/fantasy related topics. ​ Submissions are open year-round. (Please note: We close to submissions briefly at the end of each year from 12/15-1/15 to work on our anthology. Submissions sent during this time will be read after the break.)  We want essays on popular culture, movies, books, video games, SFF culture, conventions, and anything else geeky.

How you define that is up to you. Guidelines:  Essays should be 250-1500 words. Please submit in .doc, .docx, or .rtf form. Essays should be timely, i.e. that movie you just saw and loved/hated, a book that
