Tron 100 Festival Held in June

The Tron 100 Festival is a week of new short plays written, performed and directed by members of the Tron Theatre's professional development initiative, the Tron 100 Club. Spanning from new writing to devised work over five nights of performance, the Festival will celebrate the talent and creative collaborations established by the artistic community of the Tron 100.

Each evening of The Tron 100 Festival week, six creative teams, comprising some of today's most exciting breakthrough playwrights, actors and directors, will present a line-up of fifteen-minute performances. Audiences will see a different programme of work each night, making every evening of the Festival a premiere of brand new pieces of theatre.

For the Tron 100 Festival, members of the Tron 100 are being mentored by theatre professionals in the creation of their new works, receiving support and advice from Alison Peebles, Peter Arnott, Ben Harrison, Dani Rae, Nicola McCartney, Michael John O'Neil and Lisa Nicoll to help bring their projects to the stage.

The Tron 100 Festival gives participants the chance to apply skills and practices they have developed throughout the Tron 100 workshops season in collaboration with theatre companies including Random Accomplice, Theatre Gecko, Bush Theatre, Royal Shakespeare Company, Paines Plough and Frantic Assembly and with individuals such as Stephen Greenhorne, Philip Howard, David Hayman, Graham Eatough, Joe Douglas, David Leddy, Gareth Nicholls, Morag Fullarton, and Rob Drummond.
