The deadline is fast approaching for our first ever Theatre Addict event. We’re giving opportunities to upcoming writers to showcase their work on stage. So, what’s in it for us? Well, This give us an opportunity to network with Likeminded creatives which we love to do and build new relationships. Theatre Addict, has been in the works for well over a year and now we are finally moving ahead with this fantastic project for one night only.

Currently, over a whopping 40 scripts have been submitted so far from across the uk, the response has been overwhelming. This week we are getting ready to start reading these scripts and we are very excited to see what talent is out there. For those writers who haven’t yet managed to submit there 20-25 minute piece, what are you waiting for? Get them in here chriswoodward@me.com. The deadline is 27th January.

This event will be held on Friday, 8th May 2020 at The Hope Street Theatre. Showcasing between 4 to 5 new original plays from upcoming playwrights. The scripts will be announced first week in February, where there will be announcements for upcoming Directors to be involved, plus casting calls for actors who also want to be involved in this event.

Each play will have there own marketing and branding strategy. This will give the playwrights an opportunity to see another side to theatre which we feel is the most exciting and important part, the branding of the play. 

Thanks to all who has submitted so far, we will be in touch. Thanks for reading.
