Mentioned in dispatches -<a href="http://www.newtheatreroyal.com/index.php/whats-on/jilted-generation-performance">http://www.newtheatreroyal.com/index.php/whats-on/jilted-generation-performance</a> <br />
<br />
My commissioned play <a href="http://garethturpie.yolasite.com/credits.php">"I Witness"</a> is being performed by the New Theatre Royal on October 23 as part of <a href="http://www.portsmouthbookfest.co.uk/">Portsmouth Bookfest </a> and my name's on the publicity!<br />
<br />
If you go see it - and of course you should - I've seen the rehearsals - please don't clap yourselves silly for my standing ovation as you cry yourselves hoarse screaming "Author! Author!" -<br />
<br />
because, alas I shan't be there...<br />
<br />
A change of programme dates means I will be out of the country when it's performed.<br />
<br />
Oh dear, maybe that's providence lending a hand...

Unfortunately you are not through to the next round.<br />
<br />
Please take cheer though, that once again, you came very, very close. In fact you placed well within the top 100 out of nearly 2,000 entries in the acclaimed prize competition to become my next employer.<br />
<br />
I do hope you will try again next year, but in the mean time, please look out for any general submissions I may send in once this year's competition is over.<br />
<br />
Regards,<br />
<br />
Gareth<br />
