- Submission deadline is NOVEMBER 6, 2009.
- 30 minute plays (do not expect that it's the screenwriting rule of 1 page = 1 minute)
- Information about correct formatting will be up soon
- The top 3 plays will receive a full production in March 2010
- The winner will receive a cash prize this year will be 10,000 CZK

Before you submit, make sure you read full rules. We are in the process of developing a web application for submitting your plays, it will be soon added to these pages.
