About
Green Curtain Theatre promotes new play writing from the Irish diaspora in London and the wider UK. We encourage writers of all abilities to get involved and we work with professional actors to put on those pieces via our festivals and play writing competitions. We are largely unfunded (very occasional grant) and rely on the support of volunteers and ticket sales to keep operating. These Podcasts reflect discussions related to the associated activities of the theatre, e.g. interviews with playwrights we work with, opinion pieces about our latest performance etc.
