Writers who are based in, or have a connection with England’s South West are invited to submit original, unproduced and unperformed full length theatre plays for the Theatre Fest West Writers’ Prize.
Shortlisted plays will gain research and development with a professional director and actors at Salisbury Playhouse leading to a rehearsed reading as part of Theatre Fest West in February 2017. The winner will then receive £2,000 and see their play developed and staged as a full production at Salisbury Playhouse as part of the Original Drama programme.
