Bite Nite

About Bite Nite

Join us for evenings of short plays and scenes as part of our series of 'Bite Nites' where local writers share their work-in-progress scripts with you, our audience!

Championing emerging artists, we pair scripts of all varieties with directors and actors to offer experience for the creatives involved, and allow the writers to gain feedback.
