EVOLVE
EVOLVE could help you develop your playwriting skills. If you are an
aspiring writer or have just started building your career as a playwright,
EVOLVE would help you to hone your skills and cultivate your voice. Over
several months the Playwrights� Studio would provide you with focused
script development with support from a director. You would receive advice
and training to help you write a new play.
TWO WAYS TO EVOLVE (all
participants must be 18 years or over)
Places on EVOLVE will be selected through IGNITE, a national competition
which is supported by INSPIRE, a series of playwriting sessions.
INSPIRE sessions will be run by Associate Playwrights David Greig, Liz
Lochhead and Nicola McCartney who will suggest approaches to playwriting,
share their techniques and most importantly inspire you to write for the
stage.
