Shropshire-based rural theatre company Pentabus has unveiled a new production from its young writers’ group, Unfiltered, which showcases the work of nine new writers.
It is the culmination of its year-long young writers programme which is celebrating 11 years of supporting rural artists and launching writing careers.
The 2025 writers are Evie Addison from Dudley, Greg Arundell from Birmingham, Hannah King from Worcestershire, Hamish MacAulay, Shrewsbury’s Alex Mager, Emma Morgan, Meg Vaughan, Hereford-based Lily Phelps and Will Witt from Shropshire.
Evie Addison said, “I couldn't be happier to be a part of such an amazing experience that's taught me so much already and I can't wait to see everyone's final piece come to life.”
Hamish MacAulay commented, “Pentabus has provided me with a space where not only have I met a plethora of wonderful people but I’ve also been bolstered with a confidence to pursue my passion at a higher level. I've felt incredibly supported every step of the way.”
Unfiltered will be performed by professional actors at Ludlow Assembly Rooms on Wednesday 9 and Thursday 10 July.
