Event Summary
Event Description
We're looking for 10-minute plays by queer writers for our upcoming scratch night.
This is an opportunity to get your work out of the document and into the room, working with a director and actors to explore your writing, hear it performed and see how an audience responds.
Your script doesn't need to be finished or polished. We're interested in work that has something to say, something to explore, or simply something you want to try out.
You'll get
- Your script considered for a live scratch performance
- A director and actors to bring the work into the room
- A short rehearsal process focused on exploration rather than perfection
- The opportunity to hear your work performed in front of an audience
- A chance to meet and collaborate with other queer theatre-makers
- Audience feedback and a space to discover what might come next for the piece
Queer writers at any stage of their career. You might be writing your first play, developing an idea alongside other work, or have years of experience, we want to hear from you.
We're particularly interested in work that feels bold, playful, experimental, unfinished, strange or simply ready to be explored.
