Workshops
Each year we select a few particularly promising scripts to be workshopped. This means they get a kind of mini-rehearsal process with a professional director and professional actors. The exact format can vary quite a lot.
Workshops usually last between one and three days. There may or may not be some kind of showing at the end of the process - maybe a public, script-in-hand performance; maybe a more low-key sharing with a small invited audience.
We aim to tailor the process to fit the needs of the particular script and writer.
Here are some accounts of previous workshopping processes:
