HOW DO I GET MY SCRIPT READ?

Dear Theatregoers,
I'm eager to have my script read by just about ANY theatre company that's willing. It's a finished, polished work - that has even had a public, rehearsed reading in a recent drama exhibition in Sydney.

I am now eager for it to go further.
Does anyone know of any innovative, flexible theatre companies that would read such a script. Or pehaps any competitions that I could enter.

Just for the record; - it is a short 2 ACT play, averaging 45 - 55mins performance length. And the genre is black comedy.

Please e-mail me with any info you may have - it is greatly appreciated.

Jenny.

Hi Jenny,
I'm sure lots of us would be interested to have a read of it.
Sounds like a tricky length for a production.
Could it be trimmed to 40 minutes and effectively 1 act?
If so, there would be lots of interest from participants in the 1 Act Festivals, which are always a great opportunity to take a small financial risk with a new writer or work.
Regards,
Jonno.
