screenwriting comp

Was it this one, Primate? This is a unique chance for local writers to have their script read in the Sitcom Trials in Nottingham (Jan 12), Gloucester (Jan 17), Leicester (Feb 11), or Loughborough (Feb 12). Alongside the main scripts in our show, we would like to include the work of a local writer, which we will perform as a rehearsed reading. Your script must be a situation comedy featuring no more than 2 male and 2 female characters (that being the size of our cast), no more than 10 minutes long, and capable of being performed 'radio style', ie with the actors holding their scripts. Avoid stage directions if at all possible as it looks a bit naff (if you want the characters to be clearly in a certain place, then imagine it's a radio play and include a line that makes it clear where they are). Email your script, saved as a Word file, to kevf@sitsvac.org, including your name and address so we can verify you are local to the venue in question. (For 'Local', we are welcoming entries from anyone in the general Midlands region, from Gloucestershire to Leicestershire - we hope to select the best script from a writer close to the venue, but quality will beat proximity). If your script is not in time to be considered for the Nottingham or Gloucester shows, it may be in time to be considered for the Leicester or Loughborough performances. We look forward to receiving your contributions.

No, not that one :( This one wasn't regional and I dont think it was sit-coms. Cheers anyway though mate!

There was another one 'Overexposed Screenwriting Comp' but the deadline was end of Jan... Will look further, then.

Try this one, Primate: www.finaldraft.com

Andrea, where did that Sitsvac thing come from? Kev is a friend of mine and I wrote a script for them a few years back. It was hard work but fun. In case anyone is interested Kev can be seen on the ITV show The A to Z or Rude Health on Firday nights at 11:30pm Mark

Think it may well have been that finaldraft one, cheers Andrea :)

Found it on the front page of www.ukauthors.com, Mark :-)
