-Dean, Playwriting Professor Emeritus at Baker University
“The best source I’ve found for contests & information about new play opportunities is PlaySubmissionsHelper.com. With PSH, I have information about all the theatres & submission details. I can easily click on a theatre and go immediately to its website. If you write plays, this is a resource you should have.”

-Playwright Marcinho Savant, of the The Marcinho Savant Group

PHS is a great tool for playwrights and anyone in Theater to comb through and see opportunities for new voices/new works. If I had to research this information myself it would take an incredible amount of time. The fact that PHS does this for a small subscription fee, it is invaluable.”
-Whit, Member Playwright
“I have Play Submissions Helper to thank for my last four productions. I love this site, it is so easy to use and full of incredibly helpful information. The cost is very low in comparison to how much time it saves you in research.”
-Mercedes Segesvary, Member Playwright

-Andrew Michael Storm, Member Playwright
“I took full advantage of PSH’s easy-to-use service and submit to countless theaters all over the globe. I’ve since been to London for a professional reading, and am going to New York and Hollywood. PSH has literally done the work for you and everything is laid out in a very organized and concise manner.”
-Jason Kuhn, Member Playwright
“Best value on the web! PSH has shown me submission opportunities that I couldn’t find on the usual periodicals. MOST IMPORTANT… if I check in regularly, I don’t miss deadlines!”
-Tom Canagh, Member Playwright
“The list is comprehensive and informative. I submit to at least five venues a month, and have been successful in placing a one-act and a ten-minute play in theatre companies I would not have even known about had it not been for PSH. I love this service. Invaluable for playwrights who long to see their work produced.”
-J. H., Member Playwright
“What a wonderful collection of submission possibilities all in one place. I look forward each month to the announcement, knowing I have a few days until the end of the month to meet deadlines for that month, and then I move on to the next. Worth every penny!”
-Chalmers, Member Playwright
“Playwright Submission Helper has been a terrific tool helping me target my various works and to keep from missing any deadlines. I’m not sure how I could find one source for so many opportunities.”
-Paul, Member Playwright
“The most comprehensive and up-to-date listing service for submissions I’ve ever seen. The format allows me to sort quickly through the opportunities, find the ones that are a good fit. I know I am submitting more often because of this service, and that alone is worth the really reasonable subscription fee.”
-Terry Milner, Member Playwright
“PSH has been an invaluable resource for me. It’s wonderful to be able to learn about so many calls for play submissions all in one place. Because of the opportunities I discovered using PSH, my play has been selected for three different contests. PSH is a great value, highly recommended!”
-Michael Lunsford, Member Playwright
