Description
Come help decide what Awesome Theatre produces in 2026!
WEIRDSTOCK: A new works competition. A script accelerator. A good time.
10 scripts enter, 2 survive a month of developmental live events to compete in a final reading to determine our “Weirdest work”.
From learning to “elevator pitch” their idea in front of an audience, to putting pages in front of producers, directors, and performers, WEIRDSTOcK writers will be competing through various stages aimed at upping their collaboration game.
Our 2025 Prompt was “ScaryBusiness.io” Anything and everything related to work life. Mocking use of corporate lingo and unnecessary startup acronyms were encouraged.
Winner receives a staged developmental reading in 2026 produced by Awesome Theatre, as well as a lil $$$ and bragging rights.
This production has achieved a TBA Highlight!
The Homegrown Achievement. This production is creating jobs and creative opportunities right here in the Bay Area.
What are TBA Highlights? We're honoring incredible productions across the Bay that are driving the future of theatre forward. The Highlights program uplifts specific shows that have met the important benchmarks required to earn one (or more) of our four achievements: Homegrown Achievement, Going Green Achievement, Reflection Achievement, and Open Doors Achievement. When you see one of these badges you can expect to see theatre produced, rehearsed, and performed according to these values.
