Open Book is committed to the practice of race-transcendent and color-conscious casting: in plays where race is not dictated by the needs of the script artists of all race and ethnicity will be considered for all roles. For plays where race is dictated by the script we will be conscious of casting correctly.
We are an LGBTQIA friendly theater. We encourage trans and non-binary actors to audition for any roles they feel comfortable and willing to portray.
Intimacy – some roles in our season may require some onstage, physical intimacy. You will be asked at auditions about your comfort with intimacy.

Playwrights
We do not accept unsolicited scripts at this time.
The new works we have produced have very specific limitations of time and space.
We have produced new works in the past through our Driveway Theatre, One to One Virtual Theatre series and our Weekend Wonders, although we have no similar events planned at this time.
We wish you the best of luck getting your work produced. We believe in stories, and hope you find a home to tell yours.
