> You are invited to The Pleasance for GRAFT’s launch night. A full  
> evening of exciting new writing, fully rehearsed by directors from  
> the Young Vic’s Genesis Directors Project and performed in The  
> Pleasance main house, with foyer entertainment before and after the  
> show.

> GRAFT is a new collective of multi-skilled creatives who hope to  
> build a supportive community of peers wishing to develop theirs and  
> others’ work through collaboration. Writing can be lonely, but we  
> don’t think it has to be.

> One of GRAFT’s main objectives is to get the writers’ work off the  
> page, on its feet and in front of audiences. We encourage our  
> writers to work with dramaturgs, directors, actors and designers  
> from the very beginning of their projects so that, with time and  
> support and the opportunity to build a strong team, there will be a  
> noticeable evolution in confidence and craft.

> It’s early days yet, though we have ideas for many and varied  
> evenings of entertainment over the coming year. Our launch will hint  
> at the variety of styles and abilities of our growing group, with  
> brand new shorts, excerpts, poems, songwriting and stand-up on offer.

> For industry comps and further details please email Carolina at: i...@graftcollective.co.uk
