Following the great success of the first year of Pint-sized Plays, the 2009 writing competition is now launched.
Pint-sized Plays are an opportunity for writers to show just how imaginative and original they can be in a five - 10 minute play.
The organisers are looking for plays which show that small is beautiful - plays that use a pub situation in the most interesting, surprising, dramatic or funny way possible.
Plays should have a minimum of two and maximum of three characters and be capable of being staged in a pub, using only such furniture that is there, but adding any costumes, props as can be carried by the cast.
The 10 winning plays will all be performed in pubs in Pembrokeshire starting this autumn during the Tenby Arts Festival and then in other pubs around the county.
In October, there will also be a 'script slam' in a theatre which showcases the 10 winning plays and lets the audience vote for their favourite, which is then awarded the coveted 'Pint-pot' - plus a 'Half-pint' for the runner-up! Closing date is June 30 and an entry form can be downloaded from http://www.pintsizedplays.org.uk">www.pintsizedplays.org.uk
