What's On in REP Studio

Here's a quick overview of the new activities and old favourites coming up this year in REP Studio.

The 'Logues — REP Studio's flagship playwriting competition is back with multiple ways to get involved. You could write and submit a 10-minute monologue or duologue; or be a director, performer or audience member in the Heats and Finals to vote for your favourite 'logue. The Heats will be held throughout April, and the Finals in mid-May.
