Theme of "Love": A Pig, A Rabbit and a Whore in a Tiny Red Box/Escaping Time/Medicine/Love and Other Emotions/Silence
The Progressive Playwright returns this season with a twist. Each evening, five play extracts will be read on the themes of love, labour and loss and will culminate in the audience voting for the plays that they would like to hear more of. The top two plays from each evening will go forward to the January 2016 Progressive Playwright Award event - where twenty minute readings of each will take place in front of an audience and industry judging panel. The judging panel will choose a recipient of the Progressive Playwright Award 2016 with the winner receiving a £2000 bursary to develop up to a seventy minute version of their play and creative and production support to stage a work-in-progress rehearsed reading. Plays will be accepted for all of the given themes each month.
