The Theatre Centre in the UK wants submissions for its Brian Way and Adrienne Benham awards

To qualify for the TC Brian Way Award, the play must have been written for young people and been professionally produced between 1 October 2008 and 30 September 2009. The winner of the TC Brian Way Award 2010 will undertake a limited yet specific role in delivering TC’s vision as an ambassador and expert in the field of new writing. It is awarded as a cash prize of £6,000.

The TC Adrienne Benham Award for New Promise is presented to an emerging playwright who displays an interest in writing for young audiences. It is awarded as a £2,000 Seed Commission.

The deadline for submission for both awards is 1 December, 2009.

The criteria for submission and the application forms are on the web site.
