Script Reading Service
Are you a Black writer? Talawa's free Script Reading Service provides feedback and support to emerging Black writers across the UK
How it works
- Send us your script before the deadline (the script submission window closed on 26th April 2020)
- We'll confirm that we have received your script
- Your script will be read by one of our team of script readers, who will report back to our New Work Producer
You will either receive a detailed script report or, if your script is selected for further development, you will be invited to meet with us.
Please note - this process takes three months.
The Script Submission Window is Closed
Top tips from our script readers:
"Don't try to conform to standards already set by others, set your own"
"Avoid stereotypes. Research the social / cultural context of your characters"
"Don't second guess what they want you to write. Write what you want to write"
What our successful writers have to say:

Somalia Seaton
"Talawa has been an integral part of my growth as an artist and writer, gaining confidence in both my voice and place at the table … the springboard … a safe haven for me, full of encouragement and belief."
