Welcome to Player Playwrights
Where new plays find their voice
Why join?
Player Playwrights is a working community of writers and actors focused on developing new plays.
We meet weekly during term time to hear scripts performed by professional actors, followed by structured, practical feedback. The aim is simple: make the work better.
This is a collective. Members show up, contribute, and support each other’s work. We're offering more than just a one-off reading.
