Galas: Literal Rough Cuts, Designing Snow White

Date: 1 July 2010

The Royal Court will present the first-ever Literary Ball (Bal Litt�raire) held outside France tomorrow night (Friday 2 July 2010) as the season finale for this year�s Rough Cuts programme for developing new, experimental work.

Ten French and British playwrights - including Marion Aubert, Alexi Kaye Campbell, Nathalie Fillion, Samuel Gallet, Fabrice Melquiot, Nina Raine, Mark Ravenhill, Pauline Sales and Penelope Skinner � have come together this week to �tell a story, a story with songs, songs we all know, songs we can dance along to�.

The resulting piece is being written over just two days and will be performed for one night only tomorrow. The 10pm late-night performance in the Royal Court Jerwood Theatre Upstairs will be followed by �dancing and drinking until the early hours� in the theatre�s bar.

The Literary Ball is an International Rough Cut, part of International Playwrights: A Genesis Foundation Project, developed with the support of the French Institute, London. It�s presented by La Coop�rative d'�criture. Tickets cost �5 and can be booked via the box office on 020 7565 5000 or online at - by Terri Paddock
