Eight original, exciting, new pieces of theatre to add that extra sparkle to the Easter weekend!
In addition, we are delighted to announce that we have developed a play text workshop strand in conjunction with Everyman Playhouse Literacy Team which will see a one-day event for those submissions who didn’t make the final eight, and two workshop / rehearsed reading events during the festival for:
No Smoke by Annabel Dearing
Everything Must Go by Graham Chadwick
WE WANT YOU TO BE INVOLVED!
