Cybec Electric

For over a decade, our annual series of Cybec Electric play readings has brought the most exciting, fresh and urgent new writing to audiences. With scripts in hand, actors present works-in-progress with the assistance of directors and dramaturgs, providing a crucial step in the creation of new work – bringing them to life in front of an audience.

WRITER CALL OUT FOR 2025

We are on the lookout for writers who have an unproduced play that they feel would benefit from a short development and showcase at a public reading. Theatre isn’t made in isolation, and this program is an opportunity for writers to come together with peers and a professional team to nurture and test new ideas.
