ABOUT US

New Theatre Publications is the trading name of the publishing house that is owned by members of the Co-operative. This exciting project was launched by writers Paul Beard and Ian Hornby in October 1997 following the discovery that for a number of years they, and a large number of other writers, had been systematically ripped off by a well-known publishing house who were failing to pass on royalty payments.

From the outset it was our intention to provide the kind of service to writers that no other publishing house offers and we are constantly reviewing our methods to keep one step ahead of all the others. We may not be the biggest (as yet) but we sure try hard to be the best.

Attention Theatre Groups
We offer FREE reading copies of published plays

You can have any plays you wish to read emailed to you, free, in Acrobat Reader format. Single printed copies of up to 3 different plays can be sent out (to U.K. customers only at present) on 14 day loan. We request 4 first class stamps per book when you return them to contribute towards the cost of this valuable service. BUT PLEASE RETURN THEM - this service is not cheap, so if you have any of our plays that were loaned to you, send them back, eh?

If you have details of any writing or production opportunities for playwrights please email us.

 

 

NTP lets its writers know in advance when and where their work is being performed and offers them two complimentary tickets to see productions

NTP pays its writers 70% of performance fees

NTP promotes the writing of New Theatre and puts the needs of the writer first

Because, as writers, we know how tough it is for new writers to break through
