Graeae’s script submission window allows them to connect with Deaf, disabled, and neurodiverse playwrights who are new to them. Their definition of disability here includes those with long-term mental health conditions who may not identify as neurodiverse.

Although it is unlikely that any script sent to us through the window will end up being produced by Graeae, every one of the plays submitted will receive detailed feedback. For some of you, this will mark the beginning of a lasting relationship with the company.

Criteria 

• If you write for performance, you are new to Graeae, and you identify as Deaf, disabled, or neurodiverse, this is for you.
• You can submit plays in BSL. They will happily accept audio and video files in place of documents if that better suits your access requirements.
• They will accept radio, television and film scripts in recognition of the fact that playtexts are not readily accessible to many people. However, Graeae is a theatre company. Before sending them anything other than a stage play, please consider whether it is our best introduction to your work.

Deadline 

30 June 2021.
