I hope David Barry is being paid WGGB Rates. I say this as I am aware that Katapult make a point of saying they are Equity members and have advertised for a One Act Play on the Guild's website as well as S.O.A's. Both, of course, representing professional writers signed up to the minimum rates.
ReplyDeleteI note that Katapult did not advertise this initially as a competition and I wrote to them to ask for more information. Sadly, this was duly ignored. Since they have chosen their plays they have used the word "competition".
I would like to think this is not writing on the cheap or even free loading especially as Mr Barry is a professional Author.
I am reminded of another Professional theatre company (also) on the Isle of Thanet that toured with a winning play back in 2000. The author got something like £300 in prize money.
No doubt the cast and crew of Katapult are getting paid as this is a commercial venture?
