Autorenporträt

A Play, A Pie and A Pint is proud to have worked with thousands of creatives over the years both from within Scotland and from across the world, producing work from first-time and emerging writers, as well as more established playwrights. A Play, A Pie and A Pint supports playwrights, directors and actors at every stage of their career. A Play, A Pie and A Pint works regularly in association with other theatre venues in Scotland to present our works to a wider audience, including the Traverse Theatre, Aberdeen Performing Arts and more recently, the Beacon Arts Centre in Greenock. Over the years the audiences have grown as the 'lunchtime phenomenon' (The Guardian) has become established and the model has even been replicated across the globe.
