So here is the situation I am currently dealing with... If you have the means to support me during this, for the legal fees or loss of income, I could not be more thankful οΏ½οΏ½οΏ½οΈ
@simonsarris I have been doing this to pinpoint lost Roman villas, Bronze Age burials etc on my walking routes. Itβs nice to map these things onto the real world
Old Sovereign Publishing are delighted to launch The Grand Agon.
This is the event of 2026.
A $1500 prize and a book contract with 10% royalties.
The two finalists will have 1 Act of their play performed on the London stage by the players of @thebasecreates.
The winner will be acclaimed on the theatre floor by the entire audience of a large London stage and crowned with the laurels of victory.
The play must be based on an episode in the Lives of Plutarch. No matter how small an anecdote, we want you to turn it into an entire world of human life and emotion. If you want to use an entire biography, you are free to do so. What we desire is that, like Shakespeare, you use Plutarch as the source material for your play, drawing from the deep well of its wisdom and experience, to craft something worth adding to the pool of human achievement.
The Deadline for submission is Monday 3rd August 2026
The play will be performed in December 2026
Act worthy of yourselves!
