The BEAT Festival...

A celebration of Theatre and Poetry for the stage.

We will be inviting submissions from new writers to submit plays in verse which challenge and reflect the world we live in today.

BEAT will celebrate modern British society in all its multi-cultural glory.

Established playwrights, university students, writing course graduates, college leavers, slam poets...

...we need all of you!

With all we suffer from in this new modern age.
