What a fantastic initiative from our pals at New Writing North! We really hope it comes to fruition, and that we can use our own North-East base to support in any way we can.

We've booked. So should you.

Congratulations to all, especially our chair of trustees Stephanie Bain, the English adapter of this sensational production. Steph is as kind as she is sharp, and we couldn't be more thrilled for her.

Great initiative. We ran a free producing course for NE makers from 2022-23, supporting their new writing projects with seed funding, and the region's brimming with ideas. More producing infrastructure is the key! Get along on 11 Sept if you're nearby!
