As a special event on Monday 5th December, playwright Richard Bean will also be giving a talk on his career, new writing and how he views the dynamic between actor, director and writer in developing new work. His highly-acclaimed latest play,\u00a0One Man, Two Guvnors, is currently on at the Adelphi Theatre in London (until 25th February 2012) and he was awarded the 2011 Evening Standard Award for Best Play for two of his plays – The Heretic<\/em> and\u00a0One Man, Two Guvnors<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The PapaTango Theatre Company was founded by Matt Roberts, George Turvey and Sam Donovan in 2007, with the aim of finding the best and brightest new playwriting talent in the UK and bringing it to the stage. The company has produced eight pieces of new writing in venues such as the Tristan Bates Theatrein Covent Garden, Islington’s Old Red Lion Theatre and the Pleasance London. Their playwriting competition was launched in 2009 and this year received over 600 entries. Further information on the PapaTango Theatre Company can be found on their website at\u00a0www.papatango.co.uk<\/a>.<\/p>\n
