Scrib Fest brings PNW performance writers together for a weekend of professional development, artistic sharing, community building, and networking.
Started in 2024 as a playwriting conference, this annual event has quickly become THE landmark event of the year for our community. In 2026, we’re expanding to two days, adding a festival element, and proudly serving all performance writers!
What’s a performance writer? Why it’s possibly you! We define it as someone who writes for live performance: a performer performs your text, and audience receives it. Such artists include playwrights, musical theatre writers, librettists, poets, podcasters, stand-up comedians, sketch writers, monologuists, spoken word poets, song writers, oral storytellers, etc. etc. etc.
Registration
Early bird pricing opens April 1! So soon . . .
Regular registration opens May 1 along with scholarship applications and volunteer sign-ups.
Event Schedule
Check back here in April for the event schedule! It will be two days jam packed with workshop, presentations, panel discussions, readings, performances, and activities.
Speakers, Presenters, & Performaers
We have such a good line up of speakers, presenters, and performers, and we cannot wait to share who they are with you. But first we need to confirm the schedule! Check back here in April for their bios and photos.
Staff
Who’s running this thing, anyway? Great question. We’re working our tucheses off over here making things *chef’s kiss* for you, and we CANNOT WAIT to see you at Scrib Fest 2026.
