Fishamble
New Writing Award

​The Fishamble New Writing Award is awarded to a new play premiered in the Dublin Fringe Festival. ​

To qualify for this award your work must be showing as part of Dublin Fringe Festival. In order for your play to be considered for the Fishamble New Writing Award, you must submit an electronic copy of your script to Fishamble. Further details below. 

The Fishamble New Writing Award includes targeted dramaturgical support for future writing to help the playwright. Support may include, for instance, a scholarship place on one of Fishamble’s playwriting courses, mentoring schemes and/or support through the New Play Clinic for the playwright’s next play.
