Join us at Oak Theatre for our very first Scratch Night , an exciting evening celebrating new writing, fresh ideas and emerging theatrical talent as part of Independent Venue Week. Scratch Night offers playwrights and theatre companies the opportunity to bring new work to the stage, with a series of 10-minute performances showcasing original stories and creative ideas. This special evening is all about developing new theatre, giving performers and writers the chance to test material in front of a live audience and receive valuable feedback to help shape their work. Come along, discover something new and support local creativity! Tickets: Just £5 per person Interested in taking part? We're inviting playwrights and theatre companies to submit their ideas for a 10-minute play. Whether you're an experienced writer or taking your first steps into theatre, we'd love to hear from you. Please send submissions or enquiries to CainT@oaktheatre.co.uk . Submission deadline: 11 November 2026 at 5pm.
