If you’re a writer for theatre and we don’t know you yet, then we’d like you to enter our Find a Reading Writer competition. The winner will write one of the four short plays at RABBLE’s annual sell-out event, Off the Block, held at Reading’s South Street Arts Centre on 31st January.
For the competition, applicants have 6 hours to write a short play on Sunday 15th December, inspired by a clue given by the producers that morning. All entries must be submitted by 4pm of the same day.
The winner will join the professional team of writers, whose plays are performed on Friday 31st January at South Street.
The annual event, which engages over 30 professional theatre makers, is now in its 13th year and has proven a great way for the company to meet and develop new creative professionals. One past participant is RABBLE’s associate writer, Beth Flintoff, recently appointed writer in residence at London’s Royal Court Theatre.
If you would like to be considered for the competition, please email writers@rabbletheatre.com with your CV and a bit about yourself, by midnight of Wednesday 11th December.
