However, if you’d told me then that I’d be returning seven years later I… Continue

Playwrights - Graig Du Theatre Players

I would like to hear from playwrights in the Rhondda who would be interested in joining the Graig Du Theatre Players. As I stated on the home page of the players, this is just for the beginning of the project. The intention is to stage four probable productions a year by different playwrights, including myself. Opportunities,  as I know from experience, are few and far between and commissions rarely come to unknown playwrights. There is little chance for written work to be…
