HOW IT WORKS
Short+Sweet Dubai stages around 65 plays each year, the majority being written by local playwrights. Open to both the experienced and fresh blood, Short+Sweet gives hundreds of artists an opportunity to write, perform, develop, and direct, while encouraging audiences to see some brand new works on stage!
S+S Dubai is separated into two divisions: the Top 30 and the Wildcards.
Around 200 scripts are shortlisted from the thousands received year-round by Short+Sweet and are selected by directors. Those selected are performed and assessed by Judges and the audience to determine the best of the best to win a spot in the Red Carpet Gala Finals.
