We are inviting Masterclass members to apply to take part as Designers in Script Scratch, an opportunity to celebrate five pieces of new writing from our Script Sessions programme.
We are looking for five designers to create design ideas for a West End version of the plays. Designs can be shared as a model box, mood board or digital design. (If creating a model box, you will be able to borrow a model box scaled to the Theatre Royal Haymarket stage. This will be returned to Masterclass on the night of the Script Scratch). Please indicate which play(s) you would prefer to work on, but note that we may allocate you a different play, depending on availability.
📜 Script Scratch will take place on Thursday, 14th March, at The Other Palace (London), designers will be required from 5 pm to 9 pm.
📅 Application Deadline: Monday, 4th March.
📝 Complete the application form HERE.
💸 Each Designer will receive £25 towards expenses, plus a separate budget of £40 for design materials.
We look forward to receiving your application. If you have any queries regarding this opportunity, please contact us on info@masterclass.org.uk
