Submissions now open for Micro Theater: Tremont Reloaded September 11th and 12th, 2026 Deadline: June 15th Micro Theater CLE is now accepting submissions for our next popup festival in Tremont on September 11th and 12th. The submission deadline is June 15. We're looking for short, bold, weird, funny, intimate, scrappy performances that are 15 minutes or less. Pieces don't need to be fully fleshed out - just offer us something exciting you want to create. More info on how to submit on our website: https://www.microtheatercle.com/submissions Micro Theater CLE takes over various spaces in a neighborhood and fills them with a bunch of short performances happening at the same time. Each show runs multiple times a night on a schedule, so audiences scramble from show to show, grab drinks, make friends talking about what they just saw, and then dive into something completely different. The micro theater concept started in Madrid before launching in Miami and Buenos Aires, and now Cleveland. It’s fast. It’s chaotic. Our first two festivals in 2024 showcased 200 free performances of 38 new works to over 900 Clevelanders, and in 2025 we partnered with BorderLight Theatre Festival, IngenuityFest, and Arts at the Abbey at the Hermit Club to bring performances to the Downtown and St. Clair/Superior neighborhoods. Now we're bringing the madness back to more spaces in Tremont! You can submit anything that works in a small space: - original plays - traditional, experimental, musical - comedy, sketch, immersive performance, magic - physical theater, clown, burlesque - performance art, dance - something we haven't seen before! Shows might get performed in living rooms, backyards, porches, parks, or move through the neighborhood itself. If you’re excited about it, we’ll figure out how to stage it. Come in with a full team, or just an idea. We can help match you with directors, actors, and collaborators, or if you’ve been wanting to try directing or performing, this is a great place to jump in. Questions? Hit us up at info@microtheatercle.com. We're excited to hear from you! Micro Theater CLE is produced by Mindy Childress Herman, Samantha Cocco, and Jonathon Morgan. ---- Mindy Childress Herman www.mindychildress.com www.artsintheabbey.com www.microtheatercle.com
