In October last year The Space Theatre in London called for entries to the Script6 national playwriting competition.

Chris Jury submitted his new play, The Liberty Tree, and on the strength of the script he was chosen as one of the six winners.

The six up-and-coming playwrights will take part in a programme of workshops and script development, challenging them to write a brand-new full-length play by June 2014.

All six final scripts will be given rehearsed readings by professional actors in a three-day Script6 Festival. A special panel will select one winning script, which will then be developed and given a run at The Space.

All 6 scripts will be published in an Anthology by Play Dead Press

The Liberty Tree is being produced in 2014 in London & Oxford by Public Domain Productions.
