2016/17 season details coming soon!
Thanks for your interest in proposing a performance at The Studios of Key West!
Proposals are accepted year-round, however the deadline to submit proposals for events happening in the 2022/23 season (September 2022 through May 2023) has passed.
We are accepting proposals for the 2023/24 season and beyond. Please be aware that no determination will be made on proposals submitted after June 15, 2022 until the Summer of 2023.
Each year, The Studios offers a wide variety of performances in our 200-seat flexible black box Helmerich Theater, which serves as the perfect space for theater productions, intimate concerts, seminars and much more. It is also possible to propose performance events to take place on Hugh’s View, our rooftop terrace, for smaller audiences.
Please note: decisions regarding which theater productions to present at The Studios flow from the organization’s Purpose, Strategies and Values, which emphasize directing resources to artists to create innovative work that strengthens our community. To that end, theater presentations at The Studios must be either new works, or reinterpretations of existing works. Successful proposals will also create a dialog on contemporary themes. Interesting proposals may also incorporate the following elements: 1.) out-of-town artists working alongside local artists, 2.) collaboration with other organizations, 3.) a specific aim to engage new audiences.
To that end, our strong preference is given to proposals for new works, or new works or reinterpretations of existing works.
