SUNDAY 31 AUGUST

 

I spoke to Neil Marcus from the Surrey Musical Theatre Development Programme which is back for its second year, giving opportunities to local  creatives to give them an insight into the industry. Applications for the second year are open now.

We also hear from last years student Tamiko Dooley who shares her experiences.

 

Who Can Apply?

Applications are open to composers, lyricists, songwriters, and playwrights who:

  • Are based in Surrey
  • Have at least one professional credit
  • Can commit to attending fortnightly sessions on Mondays (4pm-7pm) in Woking
  • Are prepared to cover their own travel costs
  • Previous participants are welcome to reapply, though places cannot be guaranteed.

    The 2025 cohort will collaborate on a brand-new musical about a group of writers who meet fortnightly in Woking to develop their craft.

    The programme actively welcomes applications from under-represented voices in the cultural sector.

    How to Apply

    To apply, please send a sample of your work and a short biography to [email protected] for consideration.

    If you’d prefer to perform your work in person at the venue rather than submit via email, just get in touch to arrange a convenient time to chat.
