Plays Rough London

A new-writing night.
Since Feb 2016 we have staged 65 short plays across 13 events. We have open submissions for writers, directors and actors.

Our next event ‘Fly on the Wall, A 24 Hour Play Challenge’ has been cancelled.

We're on a learning journey and we welcome challenges which help us to grow and we remain committed to continuing these conversations. 

We look forward to presenting Plays Rough on Sunday.

We are grateful that we have been held to account that our line up for this weekend's project of Plays Rough London is lacking in diversity. We do not want to be part of the problem, we want to give a platform to support diverse theatre makers.

[Plays Rough London @playsroughldn]

As such, we ask for your patience, understanding and co-operation as we reflect on our current processes, consider advice and make further changes to become a part of the long-term progression for diversity in the arts as we have always intended.

We are thrilled to announce the writers, directors & actors involved in our 24 hour play Challenge 'Fly on the Wall' Sun 12th July.

We asked them: What do you wish you had witnessed as a fly on the wall?

@Lifeof_Bree You can absolutely apply for both!

[Plays Rough London @playsroughldn]

Female theatre directors where are you?!

The answer should be applying to take part in our next 24 hour play challenge because you have around 24 hours left to do so!

We've had no women apply yet... let's change that!
