The script reading service costs £17.50 for a one act script, £25.00 for a full length. For this you get a critique from an expert with experience in the fields of writing and directing for the theatre. The written critique you receive is not edited in any way and is anonymous.

The service takes up to two months from receipt of your play to the issue of your critical review.

If you get a "rave" critique or a strong recommendation from the reviewer, your script will be automatically passed to DAW Publications for consideration. Please note: at no time does DAW accept any obligation to publish. 

The Publication Service

Scripts selected from the reading service or from the playwriting competition are considered for publication. The criterion for publication is always: "will this play get performed?"

We operate a number of approved standard contracts. The writer receives a percentage of the cover price on sales and a percentage of the performance fees, which we collect on their behalf.
