Budding playwrights are needed for their 15 minutes of fame
Hebden Shorts is back for its third outing and needs new writers to submit 15-minute plays for their run during the Arts Festival in June.
The Shorts team had a year off in 2012 after two sell-out runs and their return is a unique opportunity for any budding Stoppards or Millers to have their work performed and directed by experienced professionals.
The Shorts are being revived in partnership with the Arts Festival and they want to hear from writers of any age and any level of experience who are resident in Calderdale.
Artistic director Helen Meller said: “We are delighted that Hebden Shorts are back showcasing the range of talent in our community but, as the festival is also about nurturing new talent, we want to hear from fresh voices.
“Apart from having something to say all you have to do is write a self-contained story no longer than 15 minutes, and it must be the original work of the writer that has not been performed anywhere else,”
