Laughing out loud

and yes...

I entered last year with my play I'll Give It Another Five Minutes
I made it as "stageable" as possible with only three characters and one set... but no.

Mind you, one of the runners up last year was a BBC journalist and the winner was the author of Chocolat.
Therefore, you're up against the professionals.

It says "you must be an amateur playwright" but of course that doesn't mean you can't be a published author.
