WGGB New Writing Awards

The Writers' Guild has announced their Awards for new writing in theatre for 2006. In 2005, for the first time, the Guild's Theatre Committee initiated awards for the encouragement of new writing. Members were asked to nominate anyone in any capacity who had given them an exceptional experience in new writing.

This year's winners are:

  • The Watford Palace Theatre (Joyce Branagh, Lawrence Till and Mary Caws), nominated by both Sarah Daniels and Ian Kershaw;
  • Claire Malcolm, Director, and Anna Disley, Deputy Director, New Writing North, nominated by Carina Rodney;
  • Joe Sumsion of Action Transport Theatre Company, nominated by Kevin Dyer;
  • Gwenda Hughes, currently Artistic Director of the New Vic Theatre, Newcastle under Lyme, nominated by Lisa Evans.
