What to submit: A short synopsis of a Shakespeare play. Competition is free to enter and you can submit more than one entry.
Remember your story has to be between 300-400 characters and you can use the character count in a Word document or use online tools to count characters in text like the one on this link. The character limit is including all letters, numbers, spaces and grammar.
Age categories:
Primary school age
High school age
Young people 17-25
Adults 25+
Prizes will range from local prizes to have your work recorded and published.

(*Note: The Arts News posting lists 27 April as the deadline, but their website lists 23 April, so probably best to go with this date to be on the safe side.)
