Being a Playwright
Being a Playwright
The essential playwriting career guide, from the team behind acclaimed new writing theatre company Papatango.
Writing a good play is only a small part of making it as a successful playwright; understanding the business side of building a career is just as crucial. Yet most advice for budding writers focuses only on the craft of playwriting, ignoring the practicalities of the industry - which makes it harder for those without connections or know-how to get their work on stage.
Being a Playwright sets out, transparently and honestly, all the factors besides writing that playwrights need to know about to succeed. It includes advice on: How to get a script noticed; Which programming and commissioning opportunities to pursue; How to approach agents, companies and collaborators
Drawing on Papatango's decade-long experience of discovering and launching successful new writers - who have gone on to win prizes such as BAFTA, OffWestEnd, Royal National Theatre Foundation and Alfred Fagon Awards - this straightforward and accessible book discusses the opportunities and pitfalls of life as a playwright.
Whether you're an aspiring writer wondering how to break into the industry, or a working playwright looking to land bigger commissions, this is your insider road map to navigating the world of professional theatre.
