 International Playwriting Competition
On 31st March 2010, Trinity
Guildhall launched a new International Playwriting Competition open to
all budding playwrights the world over.
 The primary intentions of the competition are to stimulate creativity
and artistic enterprise across an inclusive international and
multi-cultural constituency of participants on an affordable basis, to
provide opportunities and encouragement for new, aspiring (and possibly
established) writers to create plays for children and young people, to
generate new drama repertoire for schools, colleges and children/young
people’s theatre companies and organisations and to acknowledge
outstanding achievement in these areas by providing cash prizes and
publishing and production opportunities for the winning entrants.
Writers are asked to submit a one-act play intended for young
audiences. There are two categories:
a. For audiences of 11 and under
b. For 12-16 year-olds
Writers can be of any age and the plays must be written in English.
For details on how to enter, please check www.trinitycollege.co.uk.
The winning entry in each category will receive a cash prize of £1000,
publication by Trinity Guildhall in a collection of winning plays, a
gala performance of the play in a London theatre and travel and
accommodation costs to attend this event. In addition to this, up to
four additional awards of ‘Highly Commended’ entries will receive a cash
prize of £500.
An award will also be made for The Most Promising Playwright under
the age of 12 and The Most Promising Playwright under the age of 16.
Hurry soon because the closing date for entries is on the July 01,
2010.
The chance to shine in drama!
 Jehan Aloysius will bring together yet another wonderful dramatic
production called ‘Bengal Bungalow’ that is supposed to go on board from
the 17-19 of September at the Lionel Wendt.
He is calling for two male leads between the ages of 18-27 years.
However, if you don’t fit the bill, don’t fret for Jehan will still give
you a stepping stone when one of his future productions come alive.
