The previous submission fee has been waived, and submitted works will be assessed by a panel of industry professionals including West End musical director Nigel Lilley, Stephen Sondheim Society trustee Matti Aijala and West End performers Oliver Mawdsley and Kirsty Hoiles.

The panel will recommend works to the artistic directors of A Stage Kindly, who will consider them for production and for possible publication by Stagescripts.
