National Theatre Wales’ Assembly is developing into democratically-elected projects to be delivered across the length and breadth of Wales.

Rehearsals are underway in west Wales for Assembly 02 on the 4^th of May 2012 and now Assembly 03, mid Wales, requires your online votes to decide how we proceed. We also need fresh proposals from you for Assembly 04 taking place in North Wales, so get thinking and bring us to your town to get that conversation going.

As with the previous three, we’re asking local people, companies and groups to suggest project ideas, from which three will be shortlisted.  The shortlisted ideas will then go through a two-week online public voting period, and the idea that receives the most votes will then be delivered.  Abdul Shayek, National Theatre Wales’ Creative Associate, will then start the month-long development process, with three of the six Assembly performers and three production staff, culminating in a five-day intensive rehearsal period leading to a one-day event.

National Theatre Wales can offer great support to help you realize your idea, including:

• a one-week intensive rehearsal period leading to the event;  
• three trained performers/artists (Assembly Performers Team);
• a director; 
• a production team consisting of a Production Manager, Stage Manager and a technician; and 
• a small production budget

We want you to send in ideas for a project you have in mind, that highlights local issues and aims to create some debate.  We are looking for ideas could take place in unexpected local spaces.  Below is a mock-application to get you thinking:
