Hi All, as some of you may have heard, Matt Ball, our lovely Creative Associate who runs WalesLab is away on Paternity Leave after the arrival of his new daughter Mabli earlier this week.  Fortunately Carys Shannon, who some of you may remember as Associate Producer for NTW during our launch year, will be stepping in to cover for Matt over the next couple of weeks.  You can reach Carys through her profile on this site or at carysshannon@nationaltheatrewales.org

The deadline for WalesLab waits for no babies however, even very cute ones called Mabli, and is still this Friday - September 14 at mid-day.  The application form is here.  And there's lots more info in the WalesLab Group, and some FAQs here.  You may also find it interesting to look at projects we've supported in the past - there is a description of all of them here  However, don't try and bend your idea to fit the pattern of what has gone before - more than anything else we are looking for great ideas backed up by some creative evidence - we'd rather be surprised than repeat ourselves!

So - good luck with your applications.  Carys will be available to answer any questions from Tuesday, and in the meantime if you have an urgent query, message me here.
