Petition to be a member of Vertigo.

Every Fall and Spring, Vertigo holds petitions to join our board as a member. As a Vertigo member, you’ll help support Vertigo and new work on this campus by everything from attending weekly Monday night meetings to building sets for shows to assisting the Playwriting Chair in selecting the Vertigo season. To be a Vertigo member is to be interested in engaging with arts administration roles, particularly as they pertain to new work.

Submit your work to the Vertigo season.

Every Spring, Vertigo puts out an open call for new play submissions from Northwestern undergraduate students. We invite any interested playwrights to submit the first ten pages of their scripts and the board selects our seasons from there. In addition, every fall, Vertigo puts out an open call for ten-minute plays for our annual 10 minute play festival.
