1 Roe Street, Liverpool, L1 1HL. 0151 709 4321 boxoffice@liverpoolsroyalcourt.comStage Write is a writing initiative run by Liverpool’s Royal Court to support and develop new writing for the stage.
Regular showcase nights are held in our intimate Studio space, at which a selection of excerpts are rehearsed and performed by a cast of professional actors. Work may be from brand new writers, or from established playwrights looking to try out new ideas.
You can submit scripts to Stage Write at any time, by emailing stagewrite@liverpoolsroyalcourt.com
