Each year, Sky Blue Theatre Company hosts a playwriting competition that sees entries from writers all over the world hoping to get their play selected as one of the top ten.
10 Winning scripts from this shortlist will get a professional performance at Lost Theatre, London, and be filmed and considered for publication
Sky Blue Theatre’s British Theatre Challenge invites play scripts between 10 and 30 minutes. Ten winners will be given a full professional production at Lost Theatre, with professional actors and directors.
