Bush Theatre
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Bush Theatre is based in Shepherd's Bush, London. It was established in 1972 above The Bush public house, and has since become one of the most celebrated new writing theatres in the world. An intimate venue renowned for its close-up storytelling, the theatre holds a maximum audience of approximately 80.
The Bush runs a Writers Development Programme, with an open script submissions policy, and reads over 1000 scripts each year. The theatre looks for exciting new voices that tell contemporary stories with wit, style and passion, and champions work that is both provocative and entertaining.
A seedbed for the best new playwrights, many of whom have gone on to become established names in the industry, The Bush has won over 100 awards, and also continues to attract major acting and directing talent, regularly touring its work nationally and internationally.
