Opening 25th October and closes 15th Nov 2024

The Stables Theatre is proud to launch its annual Writing Competition for 2025.

Our international competition is now in its 6th year and we are looking for new, undiscovered plays for our competition.

The prize for the winning play is a full performance and run of the show at the Stables Theatre in Hastings in 2026.

RULES AND CONSIDERATIONS 

It costs nothing to enter but all we ask is that you send a strong synopsis of your play of no more than 250 words as well as the full and completed script.

The play must be original. Not an adaptation of a story of any genre.

The play cannot have been performed previously and/or won another competition.

We will accept musicals if there is a complete soundtrack and lyrics.

We will shortlist and then announce our final winner by the beginning of January 2025.

If you have heard nothing by the 10th January you can assume you have not been successful.

Please keep in mind that the play needs to be staged at The Stables Theatre which is a small theatre. Therefore cast sizes and technical requirements need to be appropriate.

Simplicity is the key.

Opening 25th October and closes 15th November 2024

Good luck and we look forward to reading your scripts.
