Monday 29th March – Friday 8th April 2016

Callout for Writers and Directors aged 18-25

Central to this mission are our ground-breaking residential projects for talented young theatre artists, designed to help them succeed and excel in a creative career.

So - If you have a passion for theatre, and some past writing / directing experience, we invite you to come and spend your Easter holiday living and working with us in north Oxford for two weeks of creative exploration in making and staging script-based work. Participation is FREE OF CHARGE, and full board and lodging is provided.

Places are strictly limited, and the work will be intensive, challenging and exciting. You will be treated as professionals, and expectations will be high. The work will be showcased in front of a public audience at a scratch performance evening on Friday 8th April 2016.

Young Writers will be selected by application, script submission and interview. During the residency, you will work with young directors, professional actors and an experienced writing mentor to stage an extract of your script.

Young Directors will be selected by application and interview. Successful applicants are likely to work on both new and existing scripts, working closely with not only the young writers on the project, but also a team of professional actors and an experienced director.

How to get involved:

Please log on to the North Wall website, and complete the relevant application form, and then send it, along with your CV and any other requested attachments / information, to Sherrell Perkin at the North Wall, South Parade, Oxford OX2 7JN, or e-mail perkins@thenorthwall.com

The closing date for applications is Friday 1st January 2016, and we will be in touch early in the New Year, once the shortlisting process is complete
