Damn these damn rules!

:)

At least I have enough entries now for the next 149 one-page play contests.

Or I could sell them to the Guardian. lol :P

I read some of them yesterday, but they didn't really do anything for me.
i.e. they just seemed to be conversations the author had overheard that just ended abruptly.

The main thing for a play is to have three acts. Sketches don't have to have them.

I wish you'd said that earlier. I only had two acts in my one page play Angry

Mine has a fifteen minute interval in the middle, so people can grab an ice cream or a coffee. :P

Even a one act play should have three acts.

:)

Doesn't matter how long it is.

Well I know for next time. I shall blame it on that being the first ever play wot I wrote.

Is that the law?

It is.

The other competition for Loft is for a 90 minute maximum play with JUST ONE ACT.

Marc is of course referring to story acts rather than performance acts.

Of course he is.

Oh - too late now! Bugger!

So did anyone else enter? I got mine into the final, but I've heard nowt since.

Well done James. I know someone who got a rejection email but I didn't even get that so mine must have been really bad.

Let us know if you find out how you did! And who you're giving the money too.

:)
