Eligibility
Script Surgeries are an opportunity for Box of Tricks to start new conversations with playwrights as well as deepen existing creative connections.
We operate a Positive Action Policy to support playwrights from underrepresented communities, and as such will be offering six of the Script Surgery slots to playwrights from underrepresented communities who have not engaged with Box of Tricks development schemes previously.
The remaining six Script Surgery slots will be open to members of the PlayMakers Network who have participated in one of our development schemes: Pen Pals, PlayBox, Screen/Play, Box Fresh, Accelerate, Pen Pals International.
Writers must be members of Box of Tricks’ PlayMakers Network, aged 18+ and either resident in, or originally from, the North of England.
