I have been emailing theatres across the land for information on any 'scratch' nights they may have. A scratch night is pretty much an open mic night but for theatre. It's a way of showing your latest work ad getting instant feedback.
Most of them these days seem to have themes for their nights, meaning my stories don't tend to fit, but I'll keep looking. I'm not limiting myself to Cardiff either, as I have friends that will put me up for a night in a few cities in the UK so I'm trying to find anywhere that will take me. There are several things that I can gain from a scratch night. The main one being instant feedback from the people reading it there and then and also the audience that will watch it. It's a learning experience and part of the development process for writers. I will also get to see other pieces of work and just absorb as much as possible from this environment.
