Ten Four Theatre: A Table for Six (monologues)

I know some of you like to write monologue, so here's an ideal opportunity.

Ten Four Theatre: A Table for Six http://www.bbc.co.uk/writersroom/opportunity/table_for_six_2011.shtml

++++ EDIT +++++
Extended deadline: 25th July 2011

TenFour Theatre is accepting submissions of monologues by emerging writers for its new production, A Table for Six, which will build on the success of TenFour's last production, April 14: A Night of New Stories at The Light Industrial Theatre in Southwark.

The show will revolve around an informal dinner party & its guests. The selected monologues will determine the characters attending the dinner.

The monologue must be internal and should be sparked off by something your character notices at the dinner party; a napkin, another guest's attire, a pot plant in the corner, the door mat on the way in, a pudding spoon etc. No other guest can hear or respond to the piece.

The monologue should be five to ten minutes in length.

A series of short scenes will be written to link the pieces together.

No prior writing experience is required.

Submissions are to be sent to:

New Writing Initiative, TenFour Theatre, 60 Colney Hatch Lane, London N10 1EA

++++ EDIT +++++
Extended deadline: 25th July 2011

Successful writers will be contacted by September 30th 2011.

Cheers Mikey.

Interesting. (Or not, if you read my piece...)

It's one I prepared earlier :D

Good stuff. I like a monologue. Alhough would it kill them to get email?

They'd have to print them off.

Deadline extended to Monday 25th July in case you weren't aware.

Oh, right. Seems to be a trend of deadline extensions lately.

I sent mine at the beginning of the week.
Clearly they took one look at my entry and thought, 'Dear God, we're gonna need more entries.' Unimpressed

Maybe they're allowing for crappy post.

sent one off today. Hope it gets there in time!

posted mine yesterday, munich to london... Errr

tickets on sale for Table for Six so I would assume the writers have been contacted who have made it in

Alas not choosing Sootyj is a loss not just for them, but for the nation as a whole.
