The Leytonstone Itch a bi-monthly night at Leytonstone’s award winning ‘All You Read is Love’ (http://www.allyoureadislove.com). It is a scratch night like no other, an opportunity to try out your bold and brilliant ideas and share new work in a warm supportive environment. You can get feedback, make friends and contacts, or simply be inspired! We are looking for acts and writers for our next event Sunday 11th December at 4pm. We’re open anything: music, theatre, dance, comedy, and everything in between!
The Itch has run since July 2015 and is hugely popular with artists and audiences across London. Check out www.facebook.com/leytonstoneitch for more info and regular updates.
Performers – Want to share your work? Please send us a short sample of your piece or idea. This can be a video/recording, a sample of the text, or simply a proposal outlining the idea and your background as an artist. We will consider the submission for our lineup.
Writers: Blindly Cast Readings
One of the highlights of The Itch event are our ‘blindly-cast readings’. Writers submit 5-10 minute scene extracts or short plays and three are chosen to be performed and discussed with the audience. We assemble a group of readers on the night and cast them against type. They then have 15 minutes to prepare and share the scene. Audiences love it and writers testify how useful it is to see their work performed so differently and get feedback from an audience. Feeling brave? Submit a 5-10 minute extract to us. Or if you want to volunteer as a reader, send us an email teling us a bit about yourself and we’ll invite you down to join us on the night!
Submissions
Please email scratchlikenoother@gmail.com for more info, to volunteer as a reader, or to submit your ideas & plays. Deadline is Dec 2nd, & the lineup will be chosen by Dec 3rd. Any idea you send will be considered for future Itches if not chosen this time.
We look forward to hearing from you!
