We’re excited to announce Lyme Disease: The Musical was selected from almost 700 submissions to advance to the Semifinalist round of the ScreenCraft Stage Play Writing Competition! Drawing on a long history of playwrights transitioning to screenwriting, this competition seeks to celebrate excellent plays that have great film or TV adaptation potential.

Here’s feedback from one of the competition’s readers: “This is a unique concept that is well executed. Not only is the story entertaining, but it also educates us about this strange disease in such a funny way. The characters are well-crafted, and Cassie is especially highly relatable and easy to root for.”
