First-time Writers Initiative

Ever wanted to try your hand at writing for the stage but don’t know where to start?
Or do you have an idea burning inside, but aren’t sure how to translate it on to paper?
Then submit your idea for a story to AllthePigs and get all the help you need to stage your first play!

What is the First-Time Writers Initiative?
Three first-time writers will get the chance to have our artistic team guide you through the workings of your first short play, and to see it performed professionally on a London stage. Your show will play alongside our feature show (like seeing a cartoon before a film) in November 2013 at the New Diorama Theatre in Regent’s Place. Now in its fourth year, previous writers have gone on to write feature shows for us, as well as further their writing career in theatre and TV. Once the shows are over, we won’t just let you go. We want to support our industry and all those who work in it.  The full process and provisional writing schedule can be found here Continue reading
