Applied Scripted Arc is a new writing development and applied theatre company founded by Emma Dennis-Edwards and Shereen Jasmin Phillips. Our goal is to amplify underrepresented voices within the creative industries and create a more equitable new writing landscape. We do this by offering free dramaturgy and coaching for underrepresented writers, and partnering with local schools and organisations to deliver bespoke projects and training - all delivered by our community interest company, Applied Scripted Arc Projects CIC.

We are fundraising to continue our community engagement work and provide free writer mentoring and script services for Global-majority and working-class writers, helping to reshape the new writing landscape.

This month we are celebrating 1 year of Applied Scripted Arc Projects CIC. At this crucial point in our development, we need your support to continue. That’s why we are fundraising to build on our work so far, and expand our opportunities for Global Majority and working-class communities.

You can choose to support us from as little as £5/month through a recurring donation, or by a one-off contribution.

With your support, we can build on this impact in 2027 and beyond.
