Lovers & Madmen by Eithne Garricks

May. 2000-and-something. Locked in a theatre, six actors battle to perform “A Midsummer Night's Dream” before their lives descend into a tragedy of their own making. A raucous, fast-paced, y2k-pop-music-filled riot; dust off your iPod touch and spinal roll up slowly from ten, because whatever happens, whatever goes wrong, the show must go on.

Script Sessions allow playwrights to meet with other young creatives and receive feedback on their scripts.

These very relaxed and informal sessions give playwrights valuable early feedback, while young actors get to practice their table reading skills, directors can share their vision for the piece and designers create quick response sketches. It’s a great chance to network with other creatives and give feedback on new work. Find out more, and apply to take part, here.
