Red Dragonfly New Writing Competition, run by Red Dragonfly Productions in association with Grist to the Mill, is inviting entries of thirty-minute stage plays by writers from British East Asian, South Asian and South East Asian communities.
Up to ten applicants will be invited to a one-day workshop. Three plays will then be selected to be performed at Red Dragonfly’s new Writing Festival in February 2017, and their writers will each be paid a £1,000 fee.
Entries may be on any theme, traditional or contemporary, but must be family-friendly, and suitable for the whole family, not just children. Plays should be written for a maximum of four actors (roles can double up) and should be workable with a minimal set.
