The Playwrights' Studio, Scotland is a national organisation which directly engages the people of Scotland with new playwriting and raises the standard of plays for presentation to the public.
It celebrates, promotes and develops Scotland's rich and growing culture of writing for live performance; improving and sustaining artistic quality, raising awareness, and increasing access to new playwriting.
The idea for a playwrights’ studio was championed over many years by Tom McGrath and the Traverse Theatre. In 2001 the Scottish Arts Council funded research which clearly demonstrated the demand for the Playwrights' Studio from playwrights, their membership organisation the Scottish Society of Playwrights and others for whom the quality of new playwriting is significant. In response to these findings the SAC awarded funding and support to establish the Playwrights' Studio, Scotland.
