National Theatre of Scotland will be hosting a pitching day at Rockvilla on Thursday 7 November. The panel will include artistic or programming staff members from the host venue, plus usually other producers or developers of new work, so this is an opportunity to get your work in front of them. Everyone who pitches will receive written feedback from the panel on their pitch and idea. If you are working on a new musical, we want to hear from you.
