For Writers
The Royal Court has an unwavering commitment to writers.
For over 60 years, we have premiered groundbreaking new plays, launched and supported countless new playwrights, and championed the values of new writing.
From 2024, to respond to the challenges across the playwriting community, we’ve launched a new Writers’ Card Membership at the heart of our offer with exclusive events, resources and support – all completely free to join for playwrights.
Across these pages, you’ll find all the information on the Writers’ Card and how writers can engage with the Royal Court.
Support the Court
As a charity, we rely on support to enable us to keep writers at the heart of everything we do. Our supporters give us the freedom to take bigger and bolder risks in our work. In turn, this enables our writers to write openly, experimentally and free from censorship.
With your support, writers at the Royal Court challenge the status quo and disrupt the theatre ecology. Please consider supporting the Court today. Find out more.
