WordPlay is a public rehearsed reading event delivered by actors in their final year of training at Bath Spa University and presented by Bath Spa Productions. Scripts can be published or unpublished, completed or in a development phase.

We are specifically interested in scripts that offer parts for actors 18- 28 years old , but all scripts will be considered. Actors will work on the script for two weeks with a final public performance. Part of the process will include a workshop with a professional director.

Writers whose scripts are programmed for WordPlay will be offered the following:

A small royalty fee for use of your work
Invitation to the performance
Free tickets for industry contacts
A recording of your reading.

All WordPlay scripts are put forward to a team of producers to be considered for future commissioned work for Bath Spa Productions main season of work and their SparkFest programme.
