Led by our Artistic Director Nuna Sandy and our Associate Director Mariana Aritizábal Pardo, this hands-on course will show you how to create devised plays with teenagers about the topics, ideas and stories they care about the most.
Workshop Details:
This is a practical workshop with time to apply exercises and trial learning with the group. Everyone will leave with a toolkit of practical exercises, information and feedback, created in collaboration with the cohort to support in your co-creation journey.
This is a course for people who work with young people and want to provide space and co-create with young people in a wide range of disciplines.

The Leodis Prize is a bold initiative to spotlight previously unrepresented writers.
A major new opportunity for aspiring playwrights. No other theatre award in the UK offers representation, full production and publication.
Leodis will again produce the winning entry at Fringe 2027 and the play will be published by Methuen Drama, as well as offering a fully paid writing residency at a producing theatre – keep an eye on our socials for updates on this.
In your submission, please include:
Entries have now reopened! We will close submissions in November – exact date TBC.
Last years winning entry – ‘Sanctuary’ by Jacob Sparrow — was a huge success and received universal critical acclaim. The production received enormous critical acclaim with over 20 reviews getting four and five stars.
Guidelines:
We welcome all scripts submissions for this award and are not setting strict criteria relating to numbers of characters, form, structure and length in order to allow writers the freedom to submit a script as they intend it to be presented.
However it is worth bearing in mind that the premier of this work will take place in Edinburgh at the Fringe, the challenges of which has a tendency to shape the work that is presented for better or worse. Edinburgh Fringe audiences have come to expect show around 60-70 minutes in length without an interval, but we have presented vastly longer and shorter pieces in the past - we will always look at ways that we can facilitate longer or more ambitious work and meet the challenges that they pose.
