Skills
for playwrights, directors, dramaturgs and actors
Playwriting is a thrilling but bespoke task which is equal parts taught skill and natural gift, as much about brains as it is about heart. We work to bring artists together to get more, and better, new Australian works on stages and into print.
develop your script with skilled directors, dramaturgs and actors at the National Script Workshop or by applying for a Creative Development Studio or State Exchange. Find a dramaturg through our Dramaturg Register or visit our partners for an independent Script Assessment.
promote your script to theatre companies and producers at the National Play Festival or by registering it with PostScript.
connect with local and international counterparts by finding a Local Writer Group, applying for the Dramaturg Exchange or Playwright Exchange programmes and find out what's happening overseas from our Library of new international scripts and press clippings.
