Returning for its seventh year, the Humble Play promotes the art of play writing and new play development. The Humble Play invites playwrights to submit their work to a panel of judges, who then choose which plays they wish to see produced for the public.
The playwright will deliver their work to the audience and then the audience will be invited to give their feedback.
