Here are you plays for #OffCut2026, coming to @53twotheatre this summer!!
A huge thank you to every writer who submitted a play for #OffCut2026 at @53Two
This year, our panel had the joyful task of reading a record 90 plays to reach this magnificent shortlist.
If we could stage every one, we would.
Alas, we have to curate this wonderful list into a final 20, which we will announce in the next week or so.
