Plays@3
Each month, BOLD offers a free rehearsal space for a company, director, or writer to develop a new play. The day ends with a relaxed 3pm sharing, giving you the chance to test ideas with an audience and get valuable feedback. A light-touch, daytime version of our Playwrights Play Night — supportive, low-pressure, and designed to fit around evening shows.
We invite a small, supportive audience to come and take part and as someone who's attended BOLD events before, we'd love for you to join.
This event is free but there are limited places.

“Seriously Anjali, you need to snap out of this perinatal depression or whatever – it’s really getting me down”
A twisted dark comedy about an ill-matched South Asian couple, still reeling from a miscarriage and now split apart by the first Covid lockdown – she shielding with her vulnerable mum, he furloughed alone with his Xbox – and how a 60-minute real-time Zoom call exposes lies, betrayals and a devastating revelation, culminating in a cathartic act of revenge.
