Script Call Out, Cloudburst Productions ltd

We're looking for four short plays, from four un-produced writers, that respond to and compliment the themes of A Manchester Anthem. For clarity, these themes are class, identity, community, and leaving home.

Those selected will be performed as a rehearsed reading, by a professional cast, after a performance of A Manchester Anthem. One of these will be in Manchester at the Hope Mill Theatre, and three in London at Riverside Studios.

Play scripts should be less than 30 minutes in length, and for no more than 3 actors. Scripts should be submitted as a pdf. They will be read and selected by our literary team. We cannot, unfortunately, promise any feedback.

Writers should be based in or have a connection to either London, or the North of England. They should not have had any work staged professionally.

Writers will be paid £500 each should their script be selected to be performed and this is free to enter.
