Script Scratch returns, in partnership with The Other Palace!
Join us to celebrate new writing in the heart of the West End. Hear extracts from up-and-coming playwrights, explore model boxes created by talented new designers, share constructive feedback to help them develop their craft, and network in the bar afterwards with programmers, directors, and producers!
How It Works:
Each writer has two minutes to introduce their script. Designers have two minutes to share the inspiration for their set. A panel of actors read a ten-minute excerpt of the play. Then you, the audience, have a few minutes to feedback via an app before a quick discussion.
After the event we encourage you to stick around for a drink in the bar. Whether you are a writer seeking a producer, or a director looking to widen your pool of performers, your next collaboration could be one conversation away.
