Our Projects

We initiate and deliver a range of projects for and with playwrights. To do this, we regularly work in partnership with theatre companies, educational institutions, cultural agencies and funding bodies and trusts and foundations. We are also developing a fuller archive of our past projects to demonstrate the learning and outcomes which are possible through working with writers.
