Verity Bargate Award 2024

Sponsored by Character 7, the Verity Bargate Award is Soho Theatre’s flagship new writing award with the winning play produced in a full production on our stages.

Launched in 1982, the Verity Bargate Award one of the longest-established playwrighting awards in the UK and honours Verity Bargate, Soho’s co-founder who passionately championed new writing during her time at the small but hugely influential fringe theatre company, Soho Poly. 

The winner will be announced in late 2024 and will receive:

£8,000 for an exclusive option for Soho Theatre to produce the prize-winning play
A full London run of the play staged at Soho Theatre
Workshops and rehearsed readings of the play in India and USA

To be eligible for The Verity Bargate Award, you must live in the UK or Ireland. It is open to emerging playwrights who have had less than three professional productions to their name.
