An innovative writing competition using contemporary Irish art to inspire writers has been launched by London Irish Green Curtain Theatre Company.
Entries are now invited for the Green Curtain Monologue/ Playlet Writing Competition. Entitled “Every Picture Tells a Story” writers are invited to create either short plays or monologues about life in the UK which are inspired by work from contemporary Irish artists
The contest is open to everyone who is Irish or part of the Irish Diaspora, no matter what age or level of education, who is resident in the UK.
What to submit: Writers should submit a monologue or playlet that has a performance time between 3-10 minutes. These pieces must take their inspiration from paintings that by Irish artists. There is a link to the artist’s work alongside the rules on the competition page which can be found here.
How to apply: Applications must be made online to competition@irishinlondontheatre.co.uk.
