The 8th Annual Scripts on Fire Stories For The New World

The world keeps spinning and stories keep brewing.
Stories coming from fresh pain and deep joy.
Stories that bind us together through the familiar and stories that create empathy through the unfamiliar.

We want to know what stories are almost ready to make their appearance in the world.
And we want to support their next steps.

Submission deadline for Scripts on Fire is October 31, 2024.

First prize: $500, workshop and a staged reading

Our Commitment to Equity

Our commitment to Indigenous reconciliation, racial equity, disability justice, and gender and sexual diversity.

We acknowledge that the land we gather on, Mohkinsstsis, is the ancestral territory of the Siksikaitsitapi — the Blackfoot people — comprising the Siksika, Kainai and Piikani Nations, as well as Treaty 7 signatories, the Tsuut’ina Nation and the Îyârhe Nakoda Bearspaw, Chiniki and Goodstoney First Nations. Today this land is home to the Otipemisiwak Métis Government Districts 5 and 6 as well as many First Nations and Inuit from across Turtle Island.

We acknowledge that there has been art, music, dance, storytelling and ceremony on this land since time immemorial and it is in the spirit of this land and its people that we do our work.

Please see our full Commitment to Equity, including the sections on our aspirations, accountability, current initiatives and EDIA history.
