As you probably all know by now, the other hat I wear is as Artistic Director of the arts charity, CurvingRoad. Last autumn saw the successful and incredibly exciting West End premiere of new playwright, Leo Richardson and his play, Sh*t-M*x. Now we are sitting ourselves down, dusting ourselves off, and starting all over again. So to that end, for the very first time, we are issuing a Call for Submissions! Ta ta ta ta…..bring on the trumpets……here it is:
********** STOP THE PRESSES**************
CurvingRoad announces its first Call for Submissions
After the success of Sh*t-M*x, CurvingRoad is now looking for another new play to develop and ultimately stage. If you are an emerging playwright with a piece of work that you think you are ready to bring to the pubic, and if you meet the following criteria, do contact us:
*You must be 40 years old or older
*You must be writing in English
*You must never have had a play professionally produced
If this is you, then send a brief (1-page max) bio, synopsis, and full script to:
[email protected] write “Play Submission” in the subject line
Submissions will be taken by email only.

Gosh, something I actually fit the age criteria for! Shame I haven’t got a play though:-)
Hope you find some stunners Sue.
I fit the age criteria (unfortunatly) but wouldn’t even attempt to kid myself that I am able to write a play. I look forward to hearing all about your final choice though.
This is very exciting news….and now that I am actually in the country I will be able to come along and see the play…YAY!!!

I love that it is 40 years or older. It almost makes me want to try my luck.
Thanks everyone. The submissions are already coming in with a few really interesting ones! And Lauri — go on, give it a go. You know what they say…you gotta’ to play to win 🙂
