Nurtured New Works is the heart of Scripts – Ireland’s Playwriting Festival, where emerging voices are given space to grow, challenge and connect.
After a week of mentoring, editing and directing, our selected Scripts Playwrights’ plays will be brought from page to stage in a rehearsed reading by some of Ireland’s leading actors.
The awarded playwright will be chosen by our esteemed judging panel, Selina O’Reilly (The Abbey Theatre) and Colm O’Callaghan (The Gate Theatre).
This year, our three selected playwrights—Róisín Daly, James Peaty, and Lisa Walsh—have taken deeply personal and dramatically distinct approaches to the festival theme, Perceptions. Each play invites us to look again: at the stories we tell ourselves, the truths we avoid, and the moments that reshape how we see the world…
