Want your work performed on an international platform?
Toi Toi, Teatru Manoel’s Education Programme are looking for four new, previously unperformed one act plays which will come together under the umbrella title Breaking the Rules
Submissions are open and playwrights are invited to interpret the umbrella title in any way they wish as Toi Toi develop a brand new platform created to showcase emerging and established theatrical talent both at home and abroad.
See your work staged by passionate up and coming professional theatre-makers, all of whom have worked with Teatru Manoel’s team who in turn have been mounting theatre productions in one of Europe’s oldest working theatres.
Submission criteria
- Pieces can be of any genre: comedy, drama, contemporary, period, but must take the form of a theatrical script with dialogue.
- Across the four pieces they are looking at casting around twenty young performers.
- Characters within the piece can be of any gender but must be aged 15 – 30 years.
