Kevin Elyot Award for Writer-in-Residence 2019: Call for submissions
Deadline: Fri 31 May 2019
The Kevin Elyot Award is an annual award of £3,000 given to support a writer-in-residence at the University of Bristol Theatre Collection. It is made in memory of the acclaimed actor and writer Kevin Elyot (1951-2014) and the influence he has had on writing and the Arts.
It is hoped that the award will enable a writer to be inspired by his work and help them develop their own practice.
The Kevin Elyot Archive is held at the Theatre Collection, and comprises scripts, correspondence, manuscript and publicity material detailing Elyot’s working process from initial idea to finished product. The award has been generously funded by an endowment given to the University by members of Kevin’s family.
The award will support a promising writer, practitioner or scholar to begin the process of creating a new written work. The award holder will use the Kevin Elyot Archive as well as other holdings within the Theatre Collection to inspire a new dramatic work or other creative or academic outcome.
