LISTEN LOCAL YOUNG WRITERS PROGRAMME

Write your first short play with workshops, masterclasses and mentoring at Kiln Theatre

Through the Listen Local Young Writers project, we work with 10 first-time writers aged 18-30 who live, learn, or earn in Brent. They are paid at London Living Wage to take part in all workshops as they develop their first short play for performance in a rehearsed reading on the Kiln stage.

Watch our short film for the 2022 cohort of Young Writers

Film created and edited by Michael Alan James.
