Our third episode of the podcast is available now! https://goo.gl/oqpkMn

We couldn't be happier to announce that we're one of Bunker Theatre UK's Resident Companies for 2018!
That means we'll have the time and space to support more writers, run more workshops, and it also means we'll be making a massive announcement in the next few months about how Pint-Sized might be changing, so watch this space...

It’s the first of a couple of big announcements headed your way…and it’s the new Pint-Sized podcast!
Are you a writer trying to work out how the industry works? - Which theatres take script submissions? - What are they looking for? ... - What should an agent be doing for me? - How do I get my work put on?
To help you navigate your way round the industry - and hopefully talk about the fun creative stuff as well - we’re interviewing literary managers, agents, producers, directors - and asking them how you can get your foot in the door.
Our first episode is just a little teaser - six minutes from our first interview, with the brilliant Stewart Pringle. Stewart is currently Associate Dramaturg at Bush Theatre, and is moving on to become the National Theatre’s Dramaturg; we can’t think of anyone better to ask about how to be a writer in 2018. The full interview with Stewart will be released next week, on Thursday 25th.
Check it out here, and let us know what you think! https://itunes.apple.com/…/pint-sized-p laywri…/id1315634634…
Oh, and keep your eyes peeled on Monday for another big bit of news from Pint-Sized Towers...
