Great North Write 2026 

 A day of writing and connecting with fellow playwrights here at Live Theatre.

As the city gears up for one of the biggest events of the year, this is an opportunity to bring your own writing to the finishing line!

Do you need the space to write that play you’ve been promising you’d finish, start, or come back to? Prepping something for our special writer/performer edition of Live Writes this autumn? Or any other writing project that needs a kickstart or polish?

The day before the big run, Live Theatre will be opening up its spaces for playwrights to get their heads down and get writing – grab a cabaret table in our theatre, a desk in our writers rooms or studio space and write alongside your fellow creative peers.

 

Free refreshments, inspiration and advice will be on hand if you need it. 

Writing can be a marathon, but we are here to cheer you on!
