BANG!

The BBC has launched BANG! (British Asian New Generation), a new writing competition for people living in the North of England.

What is BANG?
A new writing competition for writers based in the North of England.

You could win a BBC bursary of up to £1000, a writing mentor, and the chance to have your work produced for the stage.

What are we looking for?
A short drama of up to fifteen minutes for the stage. It will be either a complete piece or an extract of a longer piece. We’d like to see compelling and original stories about the British Asian Experience with great characters, strong dialogue, imagination, an arresting beginning and a satisfying ending.

The deadline is 8 January 2007. For full details visit the BBC Writersroom.
