Raw Treats

THANKS TO THE SUPPORT OF DARLO DRAMA

SUBMISSIONS FOR 2025

ARE NOW OPEN

At subtlenuance, we passionately believe in new work. 

Since our inception in 2008, we've produced 30 original plays.

  And that passion is why we're returning to our Raw Treats program.

 

Raw Treats is a series of ongoing play readings.

If you’re a Sydney-based playwright, we’d love to hear from you!

What we’ll provide:

  • A venue for a private reading of your play, thanks to the support of Darlo Drama.

  • A quality cast of actors.

  • An opportunity for you to hear your script read and to ask questions about how it’s received.

 

What you’ll provide:

A terrific draft script (over 45 minutes in duration) about any topic.

Things to note:

We're not offering to present a public showcase of your work,

but a private reading

that will help you further develop your script. 

We're not seeking plays to produce.

You will neither be charged a fee nor receive a payment.

Your script remains your intellectual property.

The keywords for Raw Treats are relaxed and friendly.

We’ll choose a date for the reading that suits you.

 

Expressions of Interest Close 24 Feb

 

Please send a pdf of your script to

Paul at adsubtlenuancetheatre@gmail.com

Previous call-outs have suggested

that we won't be able to host readings

for all the submissions we receive.

We'll choose your play for a reading if we believe

 what we're offering

can help you 

further develop your script. 

(And, so as not to waste your time,

if you already have a director attached

to your script, Raw Treats is not a program

designed for you.)
