The Artistic and Executive Directors of Theatr Clwyd, Tamara Harvey and Liam Evans-Ford today announce Melangell Dolma, Mari Izzard and Carri Munn as the recipients of the Roundabout Writer in Residence Scheme in collaboration with Paines Plough. Each writer will develop a 10-minute script that will be performed in the Roundabout when the Season opens at Theatr Clwyd in June.
The residency begins with 3 days in London as rehearsals for the Roundabout Season commence, with the writers meeting the acting company, creative team and writers, and experiencing the first days of work on the new scripts.
The writers will then be invited to Theatr Clwyd to observe rehearsals in the Roundabout itself and have time in the main building to start script development in a supportive environment, surrounded by other creatives. The residency concludes with the writers having time to work with a Welsh director and 3 actors, further developing and rehearsing their scripts, finishing with a performance of the new plays in the Roundabout on Saturday 30 June.
