The New Works Playhouse is a global community of writers and performers which aims to provide a highly inclusive platform for new and existing talent. As part of their global outreach to creators, they are offering opportunities for new performers and writers to be showcased on an ongoing basis.

Writers

Successful writers will be matched with performers, and have their work performed at online table reads. There’s also the possibility that these read-throughs will lead to further action on the work, such as digital productions and/or live performance.

To apply:

  • Fill out the online application form to register your interest
  • Prepare a CV and a document which includes a brief synopsis followed by one scene from the work you wish to submit. You will need to upload both files in a PDF format at the end of the application form
  • You must be at least the legal age of adulthood in the country you currently reside in

Performers

Applications are also open for performers to be added to The New Works Playhouse’s books. If you are successful, you will receive casting notices for pieces written by writers who have successfully applied to the writers’ opportunity.

To apply:

  • Fill out the online application form to register your interest
  • Prepare a CV and one headshot, both in PDF formats, to upload at the end of the form
