Manchester ADP are seeking new script submissions from anywhere in the country.
Following the sell-out success of their Arts Council Funded, first full production at the Lowry and on tour, Manchester ADP are looking for their next script to produce. They provide feedback to every script submission and a large percentage go forward to a rehearsed reading.
The best script each year is chosen for full production. If your script is selected for a rehearsed reading, ideally you would be willing to travel to Manchester to be part of the audience Q&A that happens after each performance.
Script formatting guidelines:
- Include a page within the main document that has a character list and synopsis (it can be at the back if you don’t want to spoil any surprises)
- Save your file name with the number of pages after the script name
- Anonymise the script
- Use the name of the script in the email subject as well as ADP Audio for radio scripts.
- Ensure your script is formatted correctly. Here is an example we recommend writers follow – http://downloads.bbc.co.uk/writersroom/scripts/stage.pdf. or radio: http://downloads.bbc.co.uk/writersroom/scripts/bbcradioscene.pdf
How to apply: Scripts should be sent to manchesteradpscripts@gmail.com.
Deadline: 9 April 2018
