Submissions invited for new theatre piece at community arts festival.
Sheer Drop are looking for a playwright to collaborate with to create a brand new site-specific theatre piece, in two halves, for performance in August 2016. Performances will take place as part of the Saffron Walden Maze Festival, a community arts festival, over the weekend of 20th-21st August.
Two 30-40minute plays will be performed in, on and around 2 of Saffron Walden’s famous historic mazes – the Turf maze on the Common, and the Victorian Hedge Maze in Bridge End Gardens. Writers of all levels of experience are encouraged to submit proposals for ideas (NB. Not an already written play), based on the following criteria:
- The finished plays must be inspired by the theme “MAZE”. (They can also take inspiration from the town of Saffron Walden and its history etc…, but this is optional).
- Require between 2 and 4 actors (though can contain more than 4 characters)
- Be suitable for an audience of all ages
- Be suitable for performance in an outdoor location
