Acidic Monologues Wanted

The BBC Writersroom notes that AcidTheatre is looking for a radical 30-60 minute monologue for a male actor, based on the theme of Freedom of Speech in the Theatre.

"It is a legitimate function of art to provoke debate and sometimes to express controversial ideas. A genuinely free, pluralist society would celebrate this aspect of our culture. Those who use violent means to silence it must be vigorously opposed." - excerpt from an open letter supporting the writer of Behzti.

The winning entry will be optioned for production by AcidTheatre for £250.

Entries and enquiries should be sent via email to theatreacid@yahoo.co.uk before 1 August 2007.
