Script Type: Play
To the Reader: The responses you place on this form will be shared with the playwright. The Analysis questions on this form are primarily for the benefit of the playwright.
It is unlikely that all of the Analysis questions will be applicable to any one play you will evaluate. If a question seems inapplicable to the play under consideration, check the N/A box and move on.
While there is a space after every question for comments, you are not necessarily expected to place comments after each response. Rather, place them where you think the playwright would find the comments useful. Comments not elicited by the individual questions may be placed in the Other Comments box at the end of the questions. Your responses in this part of the form are not scored, but rather serve simply as a format to convey helpful feedback. Try to be as positive as possible with your comments. And of course, remember to critique the play and not the playwright.
To the Reviewer: This part of the form is to help the Baltimore Playwrights Festival determine which plays to offer further development activities like readings or performances.
Do you recommend that the Baltimore Playwrights Festival offer further development activities to this script at this time? The response “Recommended with reservations” means that you have specific things you would recommend be improved about the play to raise it to “Recommended” status. It is expected that if you check “Recommended with reservations” you will answer the final question below.
