Overture is an exciting new musical theatre development scheme.
Overture’s aims are to develop the skills and practises of underrepresented Musical Theatre writing teams across the UK, whilst building relationships with venues and other leading UK talent.
Each writing team must have an actual show they want to develop and they welcome applications from participants at all stages of the development process. All teams will have the opportunity to share up to 15 minutes of their new show at the final showcase and will be supported by a West End cast, musicians and a musical director.
The final 6 teams will receive:
- £1000 seed funding
- 10 skills based workshops
- Mentorship from Burnt Lemon and REcreate
- Peer to peer learning and support
- A supported industry showcase and networking day at The Other Palace
- Future programming and development opportunities with their partner venues
Deadline: Sunday 18 June 2023
