Play on Words Competition 2014- 2015
The Playwriting Committee have launched our next International POW Competition with a closing date for entries of 30 September 2014.
Reading Panels of experienced volunteers will be in action from October to December assessing the submitted scripts before a short leet of the top plays is drawn up for sending to our Principal Judge in the New Year.
New recruits to our reading panels will be required - please contact H.Q. or the Playwriting Convenor if you would like to offer assistance as a reader/assessor for this Competition.
Prizes will be presented and the three winning plays will be performed as either a rehearsed reading or a full performance by SCDA clubs at the Play on Words Gala Evening in November 2015. Copies of the winning plays, and any plays that receive special commendation, will be held in the SCDA National Library and will receive publicity in Scene magazine.
Plays written in other languages and dialects (including Gaelic, Scots or Doric) are welcome but must be accompanied by an English translation.
