Little Wonder “Breaking Boundaries” Radio Play Competition 2019
  • Paris

Little Wonder Radio Plays are an anglophone full cast audio drama production company based in Paris.

Little Wonder is an Artist’s Collective, a group of professionally trained writers, actors, director, musicians, editors and artists who, amongst other things, come together to produce twice monthly radio plays.  Their plays are free to listen to and download from iTunes.

It is an opportunity to work with friends, to try out ideas different from what they usually write, and have fun making new art.

Because they know first hand how hard it can be for new writers, Little Wonder run regular free-to-enter competitions to help aspiring playwrights receive feedback and get their work read.  Last year’s competition had more than 300 entries, 70 authors who received detailed feedback, and a shortlist of 5 had their plays performed live at a staged reading in Paris.  At least seven scripts Little Wonder worked with have gone on to be broadcast or performed elsewhere.
